Subject: Re: [Zope] Upload to database from a table
Thanks for the response Andreas
You are correct in that my understanding of Zope is rather shallow!
More to the point as to what I am attempting to do:
What I have done with Paradox and do not know how to duplicate with Zope is
to place three editable fields on a form (Date, Person and Account) and a
table that lists the store inventory.
The store inventory is downloaded from Postgres each time the form is
accessed, and is sorted (type, item). This info is displayed on the table
as well as the item store number which is hidden from view or rather is in
the underlying table. On the table is also an editable field to enter the
quantity of goods issued.
Paradox makes it a simple matter to filter the displayed info by type, or
to search for the required item to locate it and enter the issued goods.
The great benefit of using Zope is of course the access levels that can be
set up. The site is to cover Safety, Quality and the store. The
organisations owner/manager can from a browser, access the information he
wants. Supplying him and others with the information from Zope, is of
course relatively straight forward - it is the input forms that have me.
Once I have got this one going the rest should be straight forward.
As both Paradox and Python have a common root in Pascal I have not found
too much difficulty in writing code in either.
Some help will be much appreciated
regards
Max

Huh? You can of course as much SQL statements within one Zodb request as
you like. Why should this be limited to only one update??

There is usually no need to deal with transactions on your own. Most
database adapters abort/commit together with a ZODB abort/commit. The
transactional integrity is given.

Unlikely your pushing the boundary...obviously you need a deeper
understanding of Zopeat least your posting does not contain much
valuable informations about what you are really trying to achieve and how
you are trying it to achieve...another try...explain what you're trying to
do and how.
