Update:

----------------
for idnum in idnumList:
            for row in sqldb(sqldb.item.idnum==idnum).select():
                name=row.name
                Dictionary['Reagents']=list.replace(idnum,name)
------------------

Is working ... sort of.  Thus far I have it replacing one number in
the list I'll look at it more later and post the whole solution when I
figure it out.  It should be noted.  When working with the Shell to
test script only one Quarry can be made, any further DB quarry's
result in an error until you reload the shell!
