Or something like this:

newSequence("addresse")   -- newDatabase
define_elements(          -- define_fields
   "addresse" ,
   {
      "name_first",
      "name_last",
      "street",
      "town"
   }
)

set("addresse","name_first","Don")
set("addresse","name_last","Cole")

That's a simple example and makes the code infinitely flexible.
