are the files indexed, or can they be direct (like in some forms of business basic). A direct file has a key and not an index number. The key can be just about anything, name, id number..ect. If you want a particular record, you read that file with that particular key.

You can pretty much use any file if you know how to read and interpret the format.

I think what you're looking for is either database support, or RANDOM file access. FB has RANDOM support built-in and I believe there is example code for using databases in the example code but I'm not sure.
