Hi all, Thanks for your inputs Manstis and Mister X. Out of pure gratitude, I will make sure your name remains unspoken :-).
This is my second attempt to write a reply, some weird thing happened during the previous one. I hope it does not suddenly show up on the message board. There surely is something in the DSL approach. Using DSL that way, you copuld actually replace variables by a possibly more flexible alternative. However, there are some drawbacks as well, as there will still be some manageablility issues. Suppose prices go up by 5% in year X and by another 2% in year Y. This would mean you have to do some calculations in order to get your DSL straight. Also, you would need to know which groups could be bulk updated in the future. If there are some corss-overs, that might complicate things as well. Providing you can control versioning, I guess a more direct approach might be the way to go. But no need to worry about that, you helped me a lot gaining more insight, especially the silent one.
