I have have completed an application and would like to add a save button

  • 0

I have have completed an application and would like to add a save button to store all the string values throughout the activity. I have read about csv write, sqlite and others and trying to determine the best way to go. I would like to basically create a report with a header, column headings and then the data and not sure the best way to proceed. I would like to have a filename consisting of the date/time and name like report one ie: report one 2011091190400. Each time save is pressed I would like to append data to file as long as the date is the same, not the time.

Is the best way sqlite or csv file? I usually implement something then get it working then find out there is a better way so this time I am asking for advice/recommendations before I start.

There is not much data but the intent is open the file later on a pc using excel.

thanks in advance.

    I always look for easiest way and later find out easy is not the the best or able to fill my needs. sqlite seems to be the answer for me. thanks for the link, I will go back to reading. I am not a programmer but have a great idea and have my layouts working and all my java code working well so I guess its time to advance my knowledge. I feel like a caveman trying to make a rocket ship 🙂

    I will update my question with my decision asap.
