Yep, I'm thinking that I'll convert Alzabo's driver modules over to using this once it exists. FWIW, much of what Alzabo does in terms of a per-RDBMS subclass is _way_ beyond what DBI exists for (things like knowing how to generate CREATE/DROP/ALTER SQL statements or what schema/table/column names are valid). That stuff is unlikely to move into a DBI subclass because its not DBI type stuff. -dave /*================== www.urth.org we await the New Sun ==================*/
