You are welcome to look at the pre-Alpha code for Transana, which uses MySQL
behind Python and wxPython. You can start at http://www.transana.org for an
overview of the program, go to the Open-Source Development Page for an
overview of our current development efforts and setup requirements for
running our current code, and you can get to our SourceForge page from
there.
Transana is a program for the transcription and qualitative analysis of
video and audio data. The part that you will probably be interested in is
the data entry and storage, which you can view through our Data Window's
Properties command. It may not be the simplest example to study, but it
does everything you want.
Good luck.

Subject: [wxPython-users] Database interface
I would like to develop an inventory-type application using Python and
wxPython that is supposed to be used and maintained in developing countries.
I have chosen Python since it is supposed to be a good language for
not-so-well skilled programmers (like myself), requires a low number of
lines of code, is multi-platform, and will probably still exist in 10 years
time. These are some of the basic requirements for maintainability and
sustainability of software in developing countries.
I would like to use wxPython to build the GUI frontend and Mysql for the
database backend.
The application is heavy on data entry and data editing.
I would like to learn from a good example by looking at the code, rather
than trying to be too clever myself. Does anyone know of an inventory-type
application that is heavy on data entry and data editing, using Python +
wxPython from which I could learn?
Thomas
