@Stephen Gornick, I was just asking where exactly in those documents was that quote from because I have been through them and apparently I missed it
Thanks again for your useful input.

where did you quote that info?
Are you asking where those are documented?
The wiki shows the API:
- http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Raw_Transactions
- http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_list
And here's an example (PHP):

Thank you both for your answers. I already knew about ABE but I was hoping to do it through bitcoind's API, if possible. I guess i will give a chance to ABE.
@Stephen Gornick, can you please tell me from where did you quote that info?

I think ABE is what you're looking for:

The bitcoind API does not give you a way to access the information stored in the local database files and you can only get the transactions which are related with your wallet.
That's changed now.
New, in version 0.7, is Raw Transactions:
- http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Raw_Transactions
GetRawTransaction
then
DecodeRawTransaction
gives you what you are looking for.
Hello,
I am interested in indexing to a database ALL blocks/transactions since genesis for private use and I am trying to understand how to achieve this. The bitcoind API does not give you a way to access the information stored in the local database files and you can only get the transactions which are related with your wallet. Is there an API call I am missing here?
Thank you for your time
