Yes, though the end-user is mostly me so I'm not so fussed about data
integrity.  It's very simple data, a date, a couple of columns with
numbers in and a text column.  If it gets confused because I've
mis-formatted a date I can simply correct the entry, it doesn't need
heavyweight validation.

That's exactly where I'm coming from, I'm desperately trying not to
re-invent the wheel but all I can find is complete bicycles!  :-)

I want a simple application with low overheads (i.e. fast to load *and*
with no DBMS extras not needed for data entry) and there really don't
seem to be any out there.
