dave said:Well, keep in mind Kent that if a plant has nothing entered into a specific data field, it simply doesn't show up. So it would be used for the plants where it's applicable and disregarded for the others.
dave said:We now have a new point to bring to the debate, though.
There may be a compromise, though. We currently have 2 main categories of data fields:
1) Primary Data Details (Affects all plants)
2) Specific custom details (affects just the plants in each custom database)
We could add a third one that is common to all plants, and called something like "Registration and Genetics" or something like that. In there we can include the parentage details, hybridizer, introduced date, registrar link, GMO/Hybrid/OP/etc, and so forth.
That would keep all those paperwork type details in one area that is uniform across the database.
