Hi,

I just started trying to figure out SQLAlchemy today as I was hoping
to translate my current SQL queries into a database agnostic format. I
admit that this OO way is kind of confusing to me. Anyway, my question
is how do I translate the following SQL statement into SQLAlchemy
format?

sql = " UPDATE tbl_TimeEntries SET %s = %s WHERE dateworked = '%s' " %
(fieldName[x], value, dbDate)

I''ve been reading and re-reading the official docs and skimming the
tutorials most of the day, but it seems that I somehow need to know
what column name I am going to update ahead of time, which isn't
really possible in my case as this is for a timesheet application I
created using wxPython as the frontend and the user can update any
column they want in any order.

The SQL statement above works; I would just like to use SQLAlchemy
instead.

I am currently using Python 2.5 (and 2.4 occasionally) on Windows XP
with SqlAlchemy 0.4.2b.

Thanks!

Mike
