Not a programming question at all.

Oh yes there are plenty worse. It was this guys request for a test case for his 'cod' that ammused me, hence the 'fish & chips' response. I just couldn't resist. :laugh:

Is there a good IDE for writing Android Apps that can be used by the likes of a old, grey haired accountant who is not brilliant with Java?

As others have suggested I use Eclipse with the ADT plugin. I installed everything on a new machine this week and noticed that google now have an all in one package - Eclipse, ADT, latest android SDK - just extract from the archive and you're good to go. Beats having to set it all up manually :) http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html[^]

This is the puppet account. He really is a 25 year old female model. :-D
Model what? [Never mind; I just saw the post above. Sigh.]

For me, it always comes down to what kind of support resources are available and how deep they are (i.e. how esoteric of a question can I find an answer for). That almost always leads me to the language and IDE environment recommended by the creators, because it usually has the largest user base. In this case, Eclipse and Java. Besides, its really all about the libraries, and you'll likely be learning them no matter what language and IDE you choose. So that's what I'd recommend, even for an old, grey haired accountant who knows some Java :)
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

On the tablet itself you can develop with AIDE, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aide.ui&hl=en[^] Not knowing how to program in Java at all, I did some googling and nosed around the files crated by the hello world project and was able to make the tablet vibrate after a short bit. It also hooks into dropbox.
