Well, I did C back in 1900's, so my skills are a bit rusty. I did find this: http://oltp-platform.cvs.sourceforge.net/oltp-platform/OLTPP/services/PythonScript/PythonTranslate.h?view=markup http://oltp-platform.cvs.sourceforge.net/oltp-platform/OLTPP/scripts/TestZipCodes.py?view=markup 12 a,b,c = ZipCode.Get() 13 print "Zip code is ", a 14 print "State is ", b 15 print "City is ", c Which might be what I need, but I am having trouble grasping what to grasp. I haven't figured out how it 'connects' or 'opens' or knows where the data is.
