If you'll look at the abiword-plugins/tools/gda/unix/AbiGDA.cpp you'll see 
exactly what you're looking for, Martin, albeit in a bit of an embryonic 
form. Hopefully by tonight I'll have something worth announcing to the 
AbiWord mailing list. After that, hopefully I'll flag down someone with a 
copy of MSWord to see how they do mailmerge, because multi-row SQL 
resultsets are precisely what I want to integrate into Abi, in addition to 
our current single-row capacities.

Cheers,
Dom
