Well the work is done now. I arrived home at 10:30 PM.
The application takes data from Oracle 10g stored procedures and renders data to both HTML and CSV formats. The HTML reports have summary and grouping sections and the HTML files are Excel friendly. The application is modular and consists of reusable modules. The application is called every night by scheduled task. The CSV and HTML files are being deployed to Apache for internal employee access. This isn't a complex and big system. Tomorrow, I'll add the email functionality to the application and re-use it's components for more reports. Now that I finished the 1st part of the application, I have to admit that choosing Python was an excellent decision. Python is an awesome programming language with comprehensive library and great community support. I am not that new to Python anymore.. I had a productive day. Thanks everybody for help.
