My company has really taken to Codecharge. We have been able to build 3 full database web applications so far.

However we now have a rather knotty issue. We need to put in place a fairly basic time entry system for our small army of casual employees.

The key to this system is that time can be entered quickly. Our supervisors will need to check and rapidly enter time from casual paper paysheets. The average casual worker will generate up to 10 different time records a day. On this basis the form style we have been building will be inadequate.

We cannot have the situation where each and every record has to be saved one at a time.

Our supervisors will need to be able to enter a batch of records in one hit for each employee.

We do not have the studio version of codecharge just yet, so I was wondering if there was anyway this was possible in Codecharge? Have I missed a feature?

Otherwise I will have to hand-code an alternative, which will blow out deployment time.

If anyone has any other suggestions I am all ears.

Sorry no solution but support for your question.
I'm also looking for a way to create, what I call, insertable grids. No succes so far. Inserting one record at a time isn't realy an option for things like time registration or, in my case, travel expense forms that have to be filled in once a month.

This is do-able in cc2.05 and not that diffucult. instead of trying to use a form, use a grid and find a creative way of getting the text boxes in there, use the before and after event to wrap the grid in form tags, write some custom code to work how many text box you have, then either insert of update the records in your database. I did have a working version of this but have since move to CCS. If check tips and articles there may be some info there as well.
