Yes, it’s a common document format. Whether it’s “the best” is clearly dependent on the type of data and how it’s used. My opinion is that when the data set becomes large enough that it’s impractical to load it all into memory at once (and write it out in its entirety on every save), a database is the best option. (Whether it’s the best data interchange format is another question. But IIRC in this case the developer isn’t exposing the data to other applications, rather it’s exposed to allow the user to copy the documents between devices.) —Jens _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
