Hi Rynt, Thanks for your help :) I looked the MSDN page but it seemed that at least I need Windows to use its DLL, while unfortunately I'm on Linux. I need to read (and later write) .wab from other Win users. CSV is fine, and that's how I am doing it right now. The problem is I cannot automate the process of exporting .wab to .csv on Linux. Also, I lose all the identity-property mapping in .wab since .csv is really a flat 2D table. Any other suggesions? :) Rio -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
