Well, first based on my response I think you see how much of a novice I
am.
And thanks for being patient with me.
Anyway, the little app I'm doing is just something for myself that I
wanted to use and also help me in my learning how to program. Anyway
you're correct what I really just want is to have my data saved in a
format that I can easily import into Excel (not necessarily XML). In
fact as you suggested a simple comma delimitated format. But that's
only because I'm very familiar with Excel and can get the data from
there to a text file or something.
But what I should have done was explain why and perhaps I'm going about
the whole thing incorrectly. Basically I will have an array which will
contain a significant number of records (hundreds) with each record
containing a number of elements. And although my little app can add
records one at a time I wanted to be able to load the hundreds of
records (which I currently have in Excel (or could easily put into
comma delimitated format). Once the data is loaded, then the user
Actions of adding one record at a time will be fine.
So am I looking at this whole thing incorrectly? And should I be
creating a new action that would invoke a readFromFile method or
something along those lines. Again sorry if I sound like I don't know
what I'm doing, but I don't.
;)
Thanks again for taking it easy on me.
Steve
