Hi,

I'm working on some Flash programs, question and answer type games that keep track of scores and players.

I'd like it to work on the web, as well as be downloadable to play on a PC or a hand-held.

I'm just drafting it together, and I was wondering if any of the SQL troops would know of the best way to store the data.

Forgive me for being kind of offbase.

Depends on what you are trying to track

I'm thinking maybe a *.csv file, or something like that.

I want to track players, player scores.

Questions, right answers.

I wanted it to work on the web, on a PC, and on a hand-held.

I think that Flash meets all of those criteria.

I'm also thinking that XML might be my best bet (though I haven't a clue about it).

Use XML. With speed of PC's these days the extra functionality you get with it is worth the extra horsepower you need. I'm not sure about flash but if you can use COM object from flash then you are all set.
