Here comes another confused newbie (ugh, the old dreaded newbie post, yuk
Anyway my peeps, I'm trying to get my hands dirty with Rev Studio and have come up with a silly lotto game (is not even a real game).For the moment I just want to be able to import a data file (.txt file) into a database table (we'll call it year I guess). The table would have 7 fields (excluding the ID, if needed). These fields would be the date and the lotto numbers (1 - 6). I may make number six the powerball but I haven't decided yet.
Then I just want to manipulate this data so I can enter a date somehwere and it should display the numbers for that date. I would also like to have the ability to display the whole file as well (like a report) elsewhere.
The process is really simple, at least in my head. I'm just trying to figure out what the best approach would be. I know that I have to somehow put the fields (date and fields 1 - 6) into an array of some kind
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone has a sample of a lotto game or this type databasebase manipulation and would like to share it would certainly be welcome. No, I'm not trying to get rich, I just need a fun project to learn Rev with (I loose interested if it's not something I consider to be fun).
Thanks,
