Data file question.

[yak merchant]

So I historically have used charts to roll my own data, and PP. As a lot of that went away in the great computer crash of 2008. I'm going to start a new side project to start testing a theory or two. Nothing fancy, but will be writing some pace based software for my personal use and want to use a standard data file I can buy for a while. Is there any reason not to go with the Brisnet $1 Single file? Anything in any other files that warrant using those instead? I know the $3 file has Class Ratings, etc, but I'm not real interested in that. Any benefit to the multi file? Or is it just broken down so that you could import into the old version of Excel? Thanks in advance.

It's highly likely that the Brisnet Single file will be fine for you.
