A comment to the paragraph below was recently added via http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/current/RelationalDatabases.stx#1-3

---------------

  Zope does not store its information this way. Zope's object
  database allows for many different types of objects that have many
  different types of relationships to each other. Relational data does
  not easily map onto objects since relational data assumes a much
  simpler table-oriented data model.  Zope provides several mechanisms
  for taking relational data and using it in Zope's object-centric
  world including Database Adapters and SQL Methods which we will
  discuss in detail in this chapter.

     These people simply do not know what they are talking about

     I suggest you spend some time here: <href a="http://www.dbdebunk.com"></href>
     Also search for "relational model" on Google.

     Being one of "these people", I have no idea what you're saying or asking for. -C
