[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 3001364, member: 115658"] I am real olde but if I was tasked to write a program to present the Hodgdon load data I would design a general purpose report writer that upon input of caliber, bullet weight, & powder(s) would produce a single screen view of data Unavailable data would be Id'd as NA. Maximum data input would be limited to no more than 6 calibers, 5 bullet weights for each caliber & 5 powders. A potential application - I goes into my LGS & sees that they have abundant supplies of H4350 & Win Staball HD. I got a .22-.250 w 75 ELDM's, a .243 W w 87 V maximum's & 105 BMB,'s, a 6mm CM with same as .243, a 6.5 CM w 123s & 140's, a 6.5 PRC w same as 6.5CM & a .300WM w 178's, 190's & 200's. The nice load data site greets me cheerfully & thanks me in advance for my interest in their products and assures me of a continuing interest in development of my shooting sport. Then I am asked if I want to create a simple single page/screen report. To help me decide an option a sample view of a report is presented. I sez Y. Then a screen having 6 cartridge selections each with 5 bullet weights and 5 powders is presented for me to complete. I fills out the info & hits GO & then .... If data is not workable, like Tite Group in a .300 WM the selection is rejected and re-entry is requested. If data is not available NA is shown on report. Then I waits. A note to the effect data is acceptable & report is being generated is shown. Then I sees the report. Rows containing caliber with each bullet Id'd with weight & brand, powder weight, velocities min/max with pressure data,. The entire screen width & paper print width (portrait) would accommodate 100 or more spaces. This would allow for certain other data to be converted like CPU to PSI using a regression estimate. Appropriate safety warnings & advisories would be shown. An option to make PDF files would be available. Data export various formats would be available. This is not Rocket Science - simple data to make a simple single screen view/report,, like go thru data record by record or by data key, then select & display using fixed format. The new format sucks. [/QUOTE]
