Charlie, Thanks. I only WISH I could do it on the db side. As I don't have any control over the database (thank you vendor), I have to deal with it on the other side of an ODBC link. Ugh!
Although I am in the midst of working out a caching scheme to help speed things up a bit. I will give this a try and hope it's not too bad a hit on me. Thanks again, Dale P.S. mx.ODBC rocks!! -----Original Message----- From: Charlie Clark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 23, 2005 12:15 PM To: Dale Hirt Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Zope-DB] Combine Result Sets On 2005-09-23 at 18:14:40 [+0200], Dale Hirt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > > I have been searching both online and in this list's archives.

If not, a pointer in the right direction would be helpful. Hi Dale, if I understand you correctly, you want to be able to UNION the two queries. If that is the case then I'd be tempted to do this on the database side if possible. Of course, Zope does make it easy to integrate the two result sets using a PythonScript. As you can interate through the objects you can easily create two lists and combine them: results = list(context.SQL1()) results += list(context.SQL2()) If performance is an issue then you should look at combining the results on the db side.
