I told you it was vague. ; ) 

Ok, so if you'll tolerate some bad ASCII, I've been narrowing down
what I want to do, and I think it's like this.


                          __________________________________
                          |                    Gui                    
            |
                          |_________________________________|
                                    |                            A
                                    |                             |
                                    |                             |
                        _______v___________     __ |______
                        |                               |     |   Parser  |   
                        |   PySQLite wrapper  |  ? |________|
                        |__________________|         |
                                   |                              |
                                   |                              |
                                   |                              |
                       ______V_____________       /
                       |                                  |      /
                       |         DB                    |___/
                       |___________________|  
                         

So, GUI generates requests for info/enters info, wrapper translates
them into SQL, and DB responds, either directly to GUI or through
parser. Not sure if I'll need to parse anything.

Database organised - 

Client details ---- Jobs ---- Finances
                           |                     |
                           |                     Costs
                         Resolutions

It will go by client#/  and job# to reference various bits.


To be totally honest, I haven't the faintest idea how to go about this. 
I think I want go OOP for this, especially when submitting requests to
the wrapper.
First I gotta figure out how to use PySQLite... what's a cursor?
