Hi Gary, Yeah, it is not that difficult to create a flat database using an xml file wich holds various stuff like driver, sponsor, car owner, team, etc. An example xml database entry might look like this.
<drivers> <driver> <name>Dale Earnhardt Jr. <car>Chevrolet. <owner>Teresa Earnhardt. <sponsor>Budweiser. <team>Dale Earnhardt Incorporated. </driver> </drivers> As you can see from the sample above the xml flat database format is very simple to edit the entries in the nodes. You can do it in notepad or what ever text editor you like. As for accessing the drivers actual stats such as standings, earnings, points, etc that needs to be stored somewhere safe. I would hate to see a gamer cheat by editing his or her over all score for the season to win the USA Racing Cup. There will be 36 races in all to win that cup and it is something that has to be earned not cheated. --- Gamers mailing list __ [email protected] If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can make changes or update your subscription via the web, at http://audyssey.org/mailman/listinfo/gamers_audyssey.org.
