good documentation about win32api ??

Hi all.

Recently I've to developed a project in python that made operation
under win32 platform and I found a lot of problema to find good
information. The only one documentation is in ActivePython page
(http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/doc...TOC-APYTH2.4.0) but it is
not very good and finally I had to turn to the newsgroups (it was very
nice).

And the question is: ¿Anybody knows where can I find good
documentation about win32api?

Thanks in advanced.

There is the book, Python Programming on WIN32, by Mark Hammond.

http://msdn.microsoft.com covers the API itself, although you need to
transliterate from the C code to python.

Maybe then ctypes is the right thing for you?

The pywin32 package has a .chm help file that covers the modules,
objects and methods. Also, there are demos of many of the
functions and interfaces.

Hi ! I've just inherited the responsibility of a postgresql database of roughly 480 tables and 6460 columns, mainly without constraints, not even foreign keys. I'd like to make it a little more orthodox (lots and lots of constraints, yeah !!), but I need a tool to make a documentation about every column, at least, as some column are really vicious (like, they are a foreign key to a table which depends on the type of another column...).
