Done, and checked in to CVS.

Possibly my mistake. For Oracle it is not an issue as the connection 
description is resolved into a host name, sid name and port number by 
SQL*Net (or Net8). I've not used MySQL in full client server mode so I 
hadn't considered that angle, any suggestions are more than welcome.

I'm due to do some work on this sample in the near future so I will bear 
this in mind.

Menu item added and CVS has been updated. I'm not sure if this is 
intended (or whether the readme needed updating instead) but as the 
sample was saving the data on virtually every event anyway adding a way 
for the user to trigger it didn't seem too excessive. I'll let Kevin 
contradict me if he didn't intend the sample to work this way.

Thanks for your feedback, it is much appreciated. Keep using PythonCard 
and let us know of anything else you find.
