Ed,
SQLite is part of Python now, so that's included if Python is.
Are SQLite or your Dabo wrappers for SQLite functional equivalents to

Since this seems to be a Python day, I'd like to ask a stupid-noobie
question that I've been wondering about for a long time. I even tried
googling it once, but probably entered the wrong terms and got
umpty-billion unhelpful articles.
In my admittedly extremely limited dealings with Python,
Yep. You can make your Python apps look just like a VFP app on Windows.
But like anything new, you need to walk before you run. Check out the
Dabo Wiki and look at some of the web casts.

py2exe is only a packager that allows you to use Python in an exe kind
of like a FoxPro exe. You can use .py scripts with the Python libraries
just like you can run .prgs with the VFP runtimes.
Take a look at pythonw.exe for the command window problem:
