Thank you. My second bit of code, which I've alluded to, is what does the more intense processiong of this data. The point of this is to give the data a common format. Once I have that common format, then I'm doing a lot more with it e.g.

- Working out trends (using least squares for now)

- Sorting by date (I added an epoch datafield and sorted from that key as an approach.)

-Exporting it to csv and a graphing tool.

My home's up side down at the moment with my study being repainted, and my PC is needing reconstruction - So I haven't had much time to restructure yet - hopefully I'll have time this weekend. Here's an example of the end output.
