>>Nothing wrong :) Just that you need to check existence and adjust rows using Insert/Delete in the same manner you'd check columns and use Alter Table to "insert/delete" columns if you want to make changes on updated app versions...

Yes, but since this table is on the user's hard drive, EXCL is fine unless you allow more than one instance of your app. Also, I should mention another argument for the 1-row many-column table: there's no need to go LOCATE or SEEK a row, since you're always on row 1. There's no right/wrong on this issue, I'm only presenting some points why this method can be better for some situations :)
