Hi,
I need some advice on how to make a robust table design. Any hints, links,
code examples or book refs are very much apppreciated.

I have an hardware unit that sends data over GPRS. The unit is going to be
reconfigured every now from a web page and the configuration is going to be
sent off to the unit. The unit responds in different intervals by sending
back the new configuration to the system. The new configuration should be
saved in database table. A control between the old configuration and the new
configuration should be performed and displayed back to the webpage.
Each unit has an id# and there will be a timestamp generated for each event.

Erica,

         XML is a file format that is self describing.  I would recommend
you use the xml format if you are change the table layout. Sorry I dont know
of any sample code for this.
