I just caught a bug in what I posted yesterday. If anyone downloaded my patch yesterday please download it again (I broke queries such as INSERT that don't return a result set). BTW, this patch may have resulted in a slight performance improvement for large result sets as the old db.py would convert the entire result set into a string which was then parsed back into lists again, whereas the new version doesn't. I haven't done any timing experiments though so I can't confirm this. -- Duncan Booth duncan@dales.rmplc.co.uk int month(char *p){return(124864/((p[0]+p[1]-p[2]&0x1f)+1)%12)["\5\x8\3" "\6\7\xb\1\x9\xa\2\0\4"];} // Who said my code was obscure? http://dales.rmplc.co.uk/Duncan
