I think sde is suggesting that you could rearrange your table to look like:
name - cnfg, prcnfg, etc
number - 1, 2, 3, ... 8000, etc
definition
file

Such that to generate the full name cnfg1 it's a combination of 2 fields. THat way you can let the database handle storing the numbers and sorting properly, and also easily get all of a specific type of cnfg file.
