Hi
I have about 1000 records of users to store.. I dont like the ideea of a
database server...
How to store does data in a structured way?
An XML?
How big can became such an xml, because I whould like to load it and search
for data.
Can I search for some data without loading all xml into memory?

If there are more than 1,000 records, I wouldn't use XML. XML files
only make sense if they are smaller than ~20 KB. You may want to use an
Access database or SQL Server (or MSDE).

I could use an Access DB and manipulate data with ADO... anyway, I dont
think I will have more than 1000 records with about 6-7 fields, like general
datas about a used.
That's why i'm undecided

Hi Crirus,
There was a query the other day from someone who transfers data between his
database and Excel using XML. Another guy was using Xml to stream objects from
one machine to another. These guys were talking about Xml strings in the MBs range!!
Xml will be fine to start off with - you can simply save it in a textfile if you like.
It's
not worth doing anything more complicated unless you find the performance to be
inadequate.
Regards,
Fergus
Fergus, Seems that you rpost was deleted by server... please post again your

Well, I need a structured and easy way to store data about some users...
Something like:
First Name, Last Name, Age, Gender, Country, UserName, Password...
I whould like to search later for a particular user... Do I have to load all
xml into a xmlDocument variable and query for some nodes?
Is there a way to search the XML without loading all data into memory?

Hi Crirus, Herfried, Fergus,
If you make your XML as a XML dataset, you can use it as a dataset.
Just using dataset.readxml ("xmlfile"))
But see what I write XML as a dataset, not every XML file is a dataset.
It satys in memory and afterwards you can use a dataset.writeXM L("xmlfile")
to put it back..
(Fergus and Herfried, did you see that genealogic website of my, that is
based on that principe, there are datasets build, that is read using xmldoc
on the clientside.)
It is of course always single usermode.

Hi,
I would like to store XML files in MySQL. What is the best solution:
1. Convert it to string and store it as CLOB/text
2. Serialize it and store as byte array
3. Flatten it out and create one column per element, each column is VARCHAR
Does MySQL has anything special for XML data?
Is there any software which helps to store XML data in MySQL

Hello,
I am currently upgrading a database of products to include pictures to

store the pictures themselves in a database as a BLOB or whether it

cons?

I don't think this is a Python question, but more a platform
question. Users on different platforms will expect configuration
data in different places. It's usually best to stick to the platform
conventions.
Python has modules available for accessing INI-files, XML-files
and also for the Windows registry, so that part is easy.
