Sorry to sound dumb (as I am only a RAW learner) but am I able to use phpMyEdit on my notebook computer (windoxs xp)?
I was having problems using NotePad as it was changing the formatting of my source code and delighted when I found phpMyEdit seemed to also handle MySql DataBases - I had a good look around but was unable to determine the answer to my needs (probably because you guys know so much more than the basic overview I have at this time.
If phpMyEdit only runs on a server (I use Linux) how can I use it to edit files on my notebook?
Would appreciate some kind person giving me some advice and direction.
Many thanks

Notepad is a text editor,
phpMyEdit is an SQL form generator.
It needs a web server & a MySql database.
You probably don't need that.
You could try Notepad++ instead of notepad on your computer.

Another great text editor is NoteTab.
http://www.notetab.com/
The Pro version is programmable (has it's own scripting language) and was written by a programmer for programmers. Features are too numerous to count. Awesome. Worth investing a week to fully explore.

Thank you both for your comments.
So I could use phpMyEdit on my Linux 5.0 server to create a php file on my server to say
1. find the next unprocessed record in a database
2. use a key from step 1 to find and update another record in a different database - mark it with the current date and save that record
3. then back in file 1 - enter that the second record was found in step 2
and add the date processed back in the first file (step 1) and save THAT record then find the next record to be processed in file 1 etc.
Thanks - for a simple private use - how much would it cost please

(1) I don't know what you mean by unprocessed, but you can filter records using the search INPUT fields which appear in the first row of the form.
(2) In List mode, you can use CONCAT to write a link to another form (passing a record ID number) and put that form in Change mode. Search the forum for CONCAT to find examples of custom links (different from the usage of the URL option).
(3) maybe, with a better description of what needs to happen, but probably not.
