flat file database

basically its a delimited text file with only one "table" of information

use tabs or commas or some unique character to separate "column" items, use a line return to separate "rows"

Is there a reason why you would want to do this? Depending on your needs, you would probably be better off with using XML or something of that nature - or get your hands on some type of actual database

Just look up flat file database in google.

it's a db with only one table in it.
