Plans for today
by Daniel on Jun.07, 2009, under GasMate
Features I plan on working on today:
- Import/Export to/from csv for easy use in spreadsheet apps- Export Done
- Trying to figure out whether to nuke whole table first
- “Delete this row” button instead of the whole nukage Done!
I need your feedback! Please let me know what you think and if there is anything I should change.

Hi Daniel,
Is there any way you would be making this great prog for win2003 for my pda?
I have Acer n35’s and this would be very useful.
Thanks
Dave

When you get everything working the way you want it, give some thought to creating an option for those of us who have more than one vehicle. Maybe there could be a setup option for number of vehicles. The opening page could then have a button for each vehicle

Yes that is the plan. Once I get everything working I will try to do multiple vehicles. I will have to figure out if I want to change the database to have a vehicle ID which can differentiate the different vehicles….but that is still a little bit down the road. I first want to get a stable release for just one car.

Dave – the issue is SQL support on 2003. SqlCe3.5 is not supported. I do not have any plans at this time to change to XML or flat files since databases are pretty fast for this. I did think about trying to use a flat file and dataTables…..but it just wasnt fun and I went t SqlCe.

Looks great so far. I really would like to see the import function. I am currently tracking in a Excel spread sheet and do not want to import all the records again. If possible, I would think a check box to nuke the tables would be great. Otherwise I would just nuke them. As long as people know they will be nuked, then they can export the current records, add the new ones, then import into clean tables.
Just my 2cents.
Oh, thanks for the Sqlce links.
