Hi all,

Does anybody know of a way of storing a bunch of data in an array-style 
container that uses a text-based name instead of an index number to lookup 
values?

Hopefully with a save to disk feature? (like textfile)

Basically I'm looking for an object that can store something like...

blahBlahBlahItem 0.5678;
strawberryJam 700001;
underwearForSwimming 0;
endangeredLunchbox 1;


It seems that I could use textfile for this but my programming is cumbersome 
for anything that's not just adding to the list. (i.e. changing the value of 
'endangeredLunchbox' to 2.)
And I seem to have to traverse most of the textfile until I receive a symbol 
match for lookup?


Thanks in advance as always,

John.
