Hi all!

I have a problem and I'm not sure about the a solution. I have two options
of creating a "process" table.

Option 1: table with 100 or more fields. Ugly, I don't want this. Fields:

process1_costtype1_data1
process1_costtype1_data2
process1_costtype1_data3

process1_costtype2_data1

..etc.

Option 2: "normalized" table with this fields:

process_name
cost_type
data1
data2
data3, etc.

I prefer the second option by far. But the problem is that I'm not sure
when using the Form helper, if I can mantain the array indexes when using
saveAll. I mean, when loading de data saved with saveAll for editing, I'm
sure that the data loaded will be loaded in the same order that the data
were saved? What happend if a register is missing? Then all will be wrong.

echo $this->Form->input("Process.0.process_name");
echo $this->Form->input("Process.0.cost_type");
...

echo $this->Form->input("Process.1.process_name");
echo $this->Form->input("Process.1.cost_type");

Data will be loaded in the same order that were saved?
