Sounds like a wonderful project to reinvent the wheel.

Get yourself a nice copy of any recent SQL3/OSQL proposal, make sure you have methods corresponding to all the keywords, and you're there. Though, just where there is, I have no idea.

Or get yourself a copy of SQLAnywhere, wrap their functions in your own classes, and voila -- whatever.

Do you understand anything about joins, groups, subqueries, much less cursors and stored procedures? I know, these things tend to make object guys uncomfortable, but if you don't handle them, you probably never really understood the problem in the first place.
