Writing SQL is *not* to be avoided. Using an ORM is basically a trade-off, where some things are supported as ORM methods and some still require SQL (every ORM does this, even the most powerful ones). So if it looks like the Django ORM doesn't support the query you want to execute, you can do it manually, as documented: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/model-api/#executing-custom-sql -- "Bureaucrat Conrad, you are technically correct -- the best kind of correct." --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
