Nothing wrong with 70 columns unless there are interdependencies &/or groupings amongst the 70 values that require normalisation. Definitely, 70 numeric columns would be a much better idea than one text column with 70 numeric values embedded in it! Sounds as if you need to read a bit about normalisation.

Somehow process it with php before, put inside of some kind of xml structure? Thanks, Andras Kende http://www.kende.com |
