I've written some Perl modules to automate this stuff. If you want to 
write your GUI in Perl ( lots less work, believe me ), check out: 
http://entropy.homelinux.org/axis_not_evil

There are screenshots of some in-house applications, and some code 
examples. All 3 modules are:
- open-source
- cross-platform
- extensively tested ( on Linux and Windows 2000 )
- being actively developed

The 'forms' module ( Gtk2::Ex::DBI ) and the 'datasheet' module ( 
Gtk2::Ex::Datasheet::DBI ) both use Gtk2 for the GUI. The forms module 
uses GladeXML to construct the GUI. The 'report' module uses PDF::API2 
to construct PDF reports.

If you want to work in C, then you can have a look at the GnomeDB stuff 
... though I would recommend Perl. Gtk2-Perl really is a great way of 
doing this :)
