Re: SQLite data storage

More complex and faster searches and joins are usually a good reason for a 'real' database, as well as the fact that a database has all the inbuilt methods for adding, and deleting records and other management tasks. The distinction is more relevant when getting into bigger data sets. However, in

I know that what I just finished reading in Rev-Up is not the case. That the sub-headline text: "Our whole team is focused on just one goal at the moment - LiveCode Open Source". Can't really be what is going on there at RunRev. This must be some advertising hype to make us all "Feel" good. And it

You could try wrapping the keysDown function in a looping handler. This is a method I use for continuous key checking. You can disable/enable the loop as you need it. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX/UI Design On 3/22/13 1:41 PM, "Richmond" wrote: >WHAT I need is a

Re: SQLite data storage

Hi Peter, For us, main reason to use a database rather than just a text file is simply to make the data a little more secure. I mean, it doesn't have to be way secure. But we do want to make it a little more difficult for someone with prying eyes to get hold of it. I also liked the idea of usin

Re: SQLite data storage

Can I ask what is probably a really silly question? Could you just use a tab separated text file to hold this amount of data, as long as there is only one table? I am a complete amateur of course so I probably did it all wrong. I had to accumulate 15,000+ records, adding to them as time went on,

Recipe to play WMV on Win 7 with QuickTime installed

Does anyone have a recipe on how to play WMV videos on Windows systems with QuickTime installed? For the live of me I don't get decent playback performance using HD 720p H.264 QuickTime mov files on Windows (Win 7 in this case). The stuttering is just unacceptable. MP4 AVC files play even worse.

Re: SQLite data storage

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Sounds like the general consensus is to use a single table to store all the data, which is the direction I was leaning anyway. I just wanted to make sure performance wouldn't take a hit, but it sounds like that shouldn't be a problem. Now I get to work on pulli
