Are you a Rev newbie or a programming newbie?  I ask because if
the former altSQLite is really a good mix.  The demo Altuit
supply (written by Chipp) shows you much of what needs doing,
but I also made a little stack and passed it on to Chipp
that shows you how to do some other stuff not covered in the
tutor (like loading fields with data from the database and
synching them to a table field so you can scroll the dataset
and keep the fields updated).  The stack also shows how to do
data entry type work with AltSQLite such as inserting data from
a field(s), editing data using fields etc.  Check with Chipp
if you want a copy.  I can't supply one direct because I only
have a user code and not Altuit demo code to operate the sample
stack.
