SQL transformer is intended to be used in linear flows. I mean that you cannot choose pipeline execution depending on sql transformer result. You have two options: 1. Maintain your conditional processing in XSL file (produce content depending on result of sql transformer) 2. Use flowscript in conjunction with some library/framework for accessing DB. May it be Hibernate, JDBI or plain JDBC. For JDBI, take a look at Forms samples to see how to use it.
Grzegorz thank you very much for your helpful reply!

Last week I had the opportunity to get a hold of the book "Cocoon Developer's Guide", where in Ch. 16 "Cocoon Interfaces: Databases", pg. 355 says:

"Because actions can influence pipeline operation, by both what they return and whether they return anything, they can be useful when th eresult of a database operation can result in different pipeline processing." "A googd rule for database actions i sto use them either........, or when the result
   of the database operations somehow will influence the pipeline."

I understand that this book was written before flows took of but is this approach still advisable?

Thanks again for your time :)
