.... T. J. Mannos has written how to apply wrappers to html to turn them into DTML Documents. I could not find any equivalent description for Z SQL Methods. A Z SQL Method uses a template (in fact a DTML template with additional commands) to construct a command (in fact a sequence of commands) to a database from the arguments provided and its context.

Thus, you have 2 options: 1. if your operations fall into well defined classes easily described by a DTML template with arguments, then you define a Z SQL method for each of these templates. e.g. Arguments: TableName ColumnName ColumnType Template: MODIFY <dtml-var TableName> ADD COLUMN <dtml-var ColumnName> <dtml-var ColumnType> 2. otherwise, you define a very general Z SQL method Arguments: command Template: <dtml-var command> and build your "command" with any appropriate tool (e.g. an external method or Python script) and pass it as a parameter. Be *VERY* careful, not to make such a Z SQL method accessible from the Internet, as it allows very malicious operations on your system! You will probably go for option 1. Dieter
