After my reply yesterday I had another thought.

In sports betting it is necessary to also analyse the opposition as well as your pick. I find that finding a good loser is just as important as finding a good winner. For example my favourite tennis player in 2003 was Andre Sa. You probably never heard of him. He was ordinary on grass and absolutely useless on everything else. Anyway he lost 12 straight times for me.

With respect to Excel vs Access, I am predjudiced towards Excel. But, I feel to start off Excel is easier cause you just have to type in and its easy to put in totals and to sort things in different sequences. Also you can convert to Access later.

Good luck
