wow!
Thanks for the quick reply.
To put it more succinctly... i think i'm fscked, since i _have_ to do this
with Turbo C++/Borland C++. It's not a life-threatening project anyways, its
a little assignment/project for a friend. I guess i'm just going to have to
build a poor man's sruct-to-binary-file-database then.
Once again thnx. At least... it wasn't my flat out fault ;)
