City Help
There are 6 Cost of Living Index figures to be entered for a city.
These are Food, Housing, Utilities, Transport, Healthcare,
and Misc. (includes quality of life).
The weight given to each group is fixed.
The weights and index values are based on figures obtained
from the Chamber of Commerce and Rand Macnally.
After the six items are entered, the Weighted Index is
calculated for the City. Click Store to save this city.
The Top, Bottom, Previous, Next buttons move through the
list of cities entered.
Click Compare Cities to go to the City Comparison Form.
City Cost of Living Comparison uses multiple links to the same database table.
The link Cities is used to enter data about a city.
The link Source City returns data to the form when a Source City is selected.
The link Target City returns data to the form when a Target City is selected.
The buttons Help, About, New City, and Quit are actually text objects
with event trees which make them operate like buttons.
The data fields are embedded in filled rectangles, rounded rectangles, and
other graphic objects.
The sample data for the 21 sample cities is based on figures from Rand McNally.
