Hello to all,
I got my mind into it did some search and comparison I got myself decided to do the following :
I want to build a package for personal finance : 
-In this package I wish to be able to :
	-Read OFX data
	-Recognize transaction
	-Setup a budget through the use of buckets or envelope through time
	-Have cashflow plotting methods
	-This package will be able to utilise data from multiple accounts
My first question is quite simple:  
	Is this a good idea, import OFX data into a SQL data base using R.
It must be said that I am planning to use a Database support in order to facilitate user usage (example visualisation of transactions, sorting and so on...)
Any suggestion or comment would be appreciated
Thanks a lot!
Sébastien
