If the historical data is needed, then I'd suggest a database. If the data is to be used to update nutritional intake, or daily/weekly exercise routines, I'd suggest a spreadsheet. As far as the specific database goes, I'd use SQLite, because it is cross-platform. Granted you may have to write a front end/client for your specific application. (Do it python, and your members should be able to run the client in their PDA/SmartPhone/iPhone as well as on their desktop. I haven't found an application for Windows Mobile that reads/writes/edits ODF formatted spreadsheets. :( jonathon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
