Hello,
Like you, I use Python to build a client GUI accessing a database
server.
I build the GUI with wxPython (www.wxpython.org). I use the ODBC driver
built-in in Active State's Python distribution (www.activestate.com/Products/ActivePython).
But this driver has some serious limitations and it can be hard to find
workarounds if you don't know very well SQL databases and ODBC drivers. It's why
you can also use mxODBC (www.egenix.com/files/python/mxODBC.html).
But you need to pay (a little) if you are a business.
wxPython is packaged with an excellent documentation, an excellent
web site full of useful information, and a very simple but excellent tool to
build GUI (XRCed).
I recommend you break your code in three tiers/modules : a module
to handle data, a module to handle views (data aware widgets and dialogs - think
to use Validators) and a module for your application itself.
You can also build a true .exe for Windows if you need that (idem
for Mac).
Sincerely,
Nicolas
