In reply to Sometimes i've seen where it by Accutronitis
Thanks
It's hard for me to go fishing for patterns or associations with hard copy and a pencil and paper. LOL
Sometimes we "see, remember, then recognize patterns", like in the fist digit of case serial numbers referring to year of manufacture for the earlier Bulova models. Mark (FifthAvenueRestorations) figured this one out by just noticing sheer numbers which fit the pattern. He's acutally cited as the guy who "discovered" this patterrn in Lisa's NAWCC Bulova article. And we all discussed this pattern here on MyBulova for a year or so before/after Mark pointed it out.
If these price lists were parsed out in some kind of database, then we could really go fishing...
I've tried OCR on the PDF's of price list, but then getting them into relational database is too challanging for me.
Where's Mark when you need him... :(
