Wow. Having read up on those, looks like you have saved me a lot of hassle, thanks. Everytime I ask a question I get an suggestion that doesn't answer it but points me somewhere else better!

Now I need to work out which is best for me. I've read some comparison discussions that seem to concentrate on things I'm not so fussed about like performance. However, I'm presently liking the look of Rose better for 2 reasons:
1. the documentation seems larger and easier to understand
2. It is obvious how to automatically configure the database which saves me a lot of time. It isn't clear to me that DBIx::Class even does this, does it?

My objective is to create some generic routines that will simply generate web forms that will allow me to BREAD several disparate databases of mine. Does Rose sound good for this?

Actually as I've got this far on the deep voyage of discovery I am undergoing this week, does anyone know of good packages to help me generate the web forms?

As ever I am very grateful for all pointers and advice.
