Depends what you want to do with the data. If you're searching through for specific values, summing values, grouping, etc, then you'd probably be better off putting it in a database as they are designed for those sort of functions. If you're just opening and displaying the file, or looking for one simple match, then just leave it in a file. Don't forget about SQLite if you choose the database route, also. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
