[SOLVED] What would be the best way to display a list of items in Qt
-
My first thought was to have a server that reads the initial (text, xml, JSON,..) document into an custom datastructure and maintains its state. The workstations would then access the data (for read and write operations) via an interface (CORBA, WebService, TCP,...) provided by the server.

Ok, it looks like this is a complicated task which I'm not prepared for yet.
So far the best solution I think is to use the QTextEdit, load the .txt file, change as needed and save it again.
Last question, if I go with the QTextEdit I'm describing here, what would be the best way to style the content in the .txt file? Do I need to work with an HTML file instead?
Side note: I'm very proficient in HTML and CSS.
Thanks

150 people, all editing the same file containing data? That sounds like a job for a database...

Still sounds like you want a database to me:-)

How about "QSqlTabelModel":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qsqltablemodel.html and "QTableView":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qtableview.html? I haven't used this combination, but combined with QSqlDatabase it sounds quite useful.

It is useful, but it does not provide the grouping that fs_tigre is looking for. QSqlTableModel provides a table, as the name already implies, while you would need a tree model to create the grouping. At least in the Qt widget world. QML of course has a list view that has grouping build in based on a flat list...
