That, how do they say, sucks.

Well, the text file that has the data is about 230 megs or so if
I remember right. I don't need all of it, but the majority of it.
All of the data needs to be hidden until a portion is retrieved by a
particular location, which would be accessed using that location's
password. I have already explained that if they want "really really"
secure data they're going to have to probably purchase stuff for
that, so I'm looking at making it as secure as I can with what I
have. As long as your average lab monkey can't hack it without the
proper password and location ID that would probably suffice.
I can create a FoxPro DB, but I think the media limitation would
apply to it as well.
