you might want to access data stored in ZODB objects from programs which have no practical interface to Zope.
there's no such thing ;-)
Or you might simply want all your textual data in one place where you can categorise and organise them.
But BerkeleyStorage and DCOracle storage dont store textual data in the database. Like all ZODB storages they store *pickled* *objects* If you want to store text in your SQL database then you need a database adapter, not a storage.
The applications I intend to develop with Zope have to work in an environment where most programming is done in VB (ugh) and data stored in MSSQL Server. If I wanted to use a Zwiki, I would want the text stored in the MSQL datastore.
Can they make http requests to zope? xmlrpc or soap requests? Toby Dickenson tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com
