[Zope] Batch Update/Insert Problem

[Chan YH]

I phrased my question wrongly in my previous email and wished to thanks
those who replied.

I am trying to insert/update a table in a batch mode.
The coding below is a simplified version.

What I wanted to do is to INSERT/UPDATE a table (contact ) in a BATCH  mode.
The user will see a form listing (company) and select the option from  table
(person).

Upon completion, the user a submit the matched listing to be inserted in
another table (contact).

I need some help  in doing this in a BATCH mode.

For e.g.  if I have 10 companies with the selected persons in a batch
to be inserted into contact table.

  Company name        Person
  (company table)          (person table)
 ----------------        --------
1. company A           Chan
2. company B           Henry
...
10. company X          Robert

insert/update batch to contact table.

Could someone give me some guidance?


TQ
