c# - Using Settings.settings or a SQL database? -

i learning c# using visual studio , running issues.

i developing windows form application. application meant track user's running stats.

in settings: select how many days run , each day add together workout (ie: 1: 100m sprints 2: 50m sprints 3: run mile).

then in main windows form user able add together times , save it. meanwhile graph projected of times- allow user track progress.

my question should store times? right store settings in settings.settings doc. times should utilize settings file or sql database of sort?

sqlce or sqlite or other simple inproc database improve settings file.

settings not meant grow every user input, task database, much easier query info using sql.

answering question in comments:

there difference between user data , user preferences. have decide in app.

i go settings file regarding user preferences. form layout, colors, sounds, window size , on.

since settings managing framework pretty sophisticated, save time designing tables user preferences , developing access tables.

another perchance bright side of settings file - can edited manually text editor.

c# winforms
