This document describes the basics of the underlying GRAMPS database. This is not intended to be a reference manual, but an introductory programmer's guide to using the GRAMPS database access routines. If you are a looking for documentation on how to use the GRAMPS system as a user instead of as a program developer, it can be found on the [http://gramps-project.org/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_page&PAGE_id=7 GRAMPS documentation web page].
