One thing I would watch out for is concept overload. I think the single most difficult thing for me was sifting the VAST amounts of information. One of the problems I ran into was finding tutes and examples that did *one thing only* and not mixing concepts like using MachII and ColdSpring together. So when you look at the code examples you can't figure out which parts were MachII and which were ColdSpring.
I would recomend taking things one step at a time instead of trying to abstract your database while trying to work it into a Framework. I ended up thinking myself stupid and just got frustrated. Pick a single task/Concept and figure it out and then move on to another. HTH G On Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 12:57 PM, Judah McAuley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > All fine point there Gerald, thank you.
