If you're storing a large amount of information and doing statistical work on it, you should at least consider learning R. It's very strong for Monte Carlo simulation. Thanks - - - already on the order paper. Also, if the web app you're using is public, please share the URL. We don't know your business data, and I don't think¹ we're psychic enough to work out what you're doing. The web application I'm presently using is a subscription service. They do have a demo that would provide most ideas for my quest - - - sheepbytes.ca . Thanks for the ideas!
sheepbytes.ca is cool, the local code looks neat and tidy. I am not sure about the security thereof. And just imho S/R would not be optimal to remake this specific java app.. just from playing with the demo and reading the tech doc, if you do decide to remake this in java/whatever - it will be a lot of work, even with a fw and/or base. just saying :) a lot of what sheepmates is and does is also data related... If I were making this, for myself and for local use, I would probably enter the formulas into a spreadsheet and calculate my feed requirements, etc from that...(yes, I am quite lazy - plus this way I can give my spreadsheet out to my sheep mates and get free beer) Andre
