@Khalid_AliJun 04.2005 — it can be solved easil using a rdbms(relation data base)...however if writing to a file is what you want to procede with then try using xml and create a person tag with any number of sub tags...if thats too hard then a CSV file should do...where each line is probably all the infor about a person

@keko2005authorJun 04.2005 — is an rdbs like mysql? cause if it is, can i encorperate it into the jar file? or do i have to have them connect to a server? cause if they connect to a server, thats not what i want. and u say xml might be the way? do u have a link for a xml thing?

@Khalid_AliJun 04.2005 — there are tone of resources about XML over the net, just do a google search.

And yes its like mysql and it will have to connect to a db server.

Now you mentioned that you want to include such file in a jar file that doesn' sound like a good idea..see the db file will increase in size or decrese in size depending upon insertions/deletions. you will have to keep this db file a csv or xml out side of the jar.

Success!
