Hi all,
This is my first day using DABO and it looks very much like what I need. So a 
big thanks to the devs for this really nice product.

I've tried searching the wiki, the web and the list-archives but can't for the 
life of me find any tips on how to add a button which inserts a new record in 
the DB...

Let me elaborate:
I used the ClassDesigner to build a parent child view, inspired by (read: 
slavishly following) the excellent two part screencast!
The app should be a basic personal CRM system and (for now) has two tables 
called t_people and t_contact.

Using the ClassDesigner, browsing works very well (quite fast) after a few 
tweaks, mainly to do with failing datatype conversion between mySql and 
Dabo's BusinessObjects.
Well, you guessed it by now... Close... but no banana.

I cannot figure out how to tell the business objects that I want to insert a 
new blank row in the table somewhere. After that the save should be using the 
in-built system. The DB is set up to autogenerate keys well enough bu I can't 
find a decent code example (or it is staring me in the face and Ijust can't 
recognize it).

Can someone please point me to some sample code?
I also tried the AppWizard. That is one scary wizard! It actually creates 
clean code. This must be unique. That works and updates are no problem, but I 
need to build an app that is really much simpler than what the wizard gives 
me.

Thanks in advance from a complete python and DABO newbie...

Dennis
