Question Multiplatform DB stored on a CD

Hi,

I am trying to achieve the same thing, I have to put a browsable flower catalogue on a mini CD.

I would like to use a flatfile db so that it can run everywhere. I guess I'll use XML to query the file but I have been reading about a DB called FireBird from Interbase, you might want to look at this.

Any help at this point would be appreciated,


Many thanks

Re: Multiplatform DB stored on a CD

I find a perfect solution for my case. An open source database called SQLite.

Check this link:
