(tried to write a descriptive subject line)<br><br>I'm curious whether I should consider learning either SQLObject <br>or SQLAlchemy, and whether my needs would be worth it. I am<br>learning to use SQlite databases for fairly simple storage and later<br>search, and have only recently learned about object relational<br>mapping (ORM). "Fairly simple" = 4-6 tables with no more than<br>2-10 fields each, 100-5,000 records, with queries doing basic LIKE <br>and other matches, nothing fancy.<br><br>I'd like to hear opinions on when it is worth it to use these ORM tools<br>for a Python database application, that is, in terms of the complexity<br>of the database or queries or the application, or when basic Python <br>and SQL is sufficient. It's a personal preference, I'm sure, but I just <br>wanted to get some opinions. Also, if there is an opinion about either <br>of these two ORMs in terms of learning curve, quality, etc.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Che<br><br><br /><hr />It’s easy to add contacts from Facebook and other social sites through Windows Live™ Messenger. <a href='https://www.invite2messenger.net/im/?source=TXT_EML_WLH_LearnHow' target='_new'>Learn How.</a></body>
