Autoquerying and creation of pages

Hey Wooly, I saw your post on the ExternalData talk page about dynamically creating pages from DB queries. I am trying to do the same thing but am not certain about how to go about it.

I understand that by creating a property, and then associating this property with a form using

[[Has Type::Page]]
[[Creates pages with form::formname]]

will ensure that the page is automatically created using that form. I'm uncertain of where exactly to use the DB query. I guess it goes into a template associated with that form? Can you show me a simplified version of your template and form to see how you do it ?

Thanks, Gavin
