I'm using a solid DB and i'm accessing it via the odbc module
(activepython).
I get a DbiDate object returned but i don't find a way to decently print

This seems to be a very, very silly original post. I know of plenty of
people who make a living programming Python. It's been the vast
majority of the programming (for money) I've done in the last ten
