I’m curious to know if anyone would be interested in a small and *hopefully* simple project. From what I’ve read, it seems a pretty straight-forward customization using the forms module. However, I can also see that it is beyond my capabilities. I’m hoping that this task which seems intimidating to me might seem easy to an experienced programmer.
Here’s the gist of it…
We have a small group of cyclists using a simple table on Quickbase.com (online flatfile database service) to keep track of our training rides. Each member of the group has access to all records and can view and sort them in a few different ways and get some subtotals, nothing fancy… The most useful view is to see total mileage since the beginning of the calendar year, subtotaled by user. Views of prior years are also used for comparison.
There are about 10 fields:
Indoor/Outdoor: - pull down True/False type field
Date: - date
Hours: - number
Minutes: - number
Seconds: - number
- Hours, Min, Sec, three fields now, could be one but needs to be able to be used to calculate average speed
Miles: - number, 2 decimal places
Max Speed: - number, 1 decimal place
Avg Speed: - number, 2 decimal places (calculated by database)
Weight: - number, 1 decimal place
Picture: - link to photo (ideally uploaded at time of data entry, but this entire field could be separate or simply be eliminated if it complicates things)
