Hey...

I need to create a database for a programming project at College. Its just a simple phone-book and contact detail database.

Will have no more than 100 or so records, but the aim is to create your own database and not use existing database software.

I was thinking of using just a plain text file, it doesnt need to be relational. I was not to sure if this is a common standard to use a text file, or if it is easier just to create one another way.

It has to be done in C code, and it cant use any software that isn't made.

Any help again, would be appreciated, as to i appreciate the comment above, i should have made my origional post a little more clear, cheers...
