1. It seems that the only way to establish a DB connection is through Gadfly. There are warnings everywhere that Gadfly is inefficient. Therefore, I want to use ODBC (ODBC.Windows), like I did before. How?

Nonono.... ZOPE uses the Gadfly db to store "zope objects". It can also connect to other DBs, and access them via SQL methods. There are a number of DB interfaces, including an ODBC interface.

Umm...no...ZOPE used the ZODB to store objects...gadfly is another SQL written python that is just bundled with zope since it is pretty cool.

Ok.. my mistake.. sorry.... thanks for correcting me. I was under the impression ZOPE stored data in a db, using gadfly as the default, and it was refered to as ZODB for convenience. Thanks for clearning that up for me. -- Have a better one, Curtis. <dtml-var standard_work_disclaimer>
