I'm writing a novel. I've spent the last couple of days looking for a quick and easy way of generating a stand-a-lone database that is little more than a card file system to store all my character data on. This will help me keep track of any story characters I invent and allow me a quick and easy system to create new characters records for future reference.

Features:

Saves data in a multi-dementional array
Stores data in a ascii dat file
Tree view will allow for grouping of familys or organizational groups.
Created with BlueGUI 2.052 and DarkBASIC Professional 6.2b
Stores large memo's for history, appearance and personaility
Automatically opens database.dat file

Screenshot:



Status:

Interface designed and tested
Data is being stored in a multi-dementional array
Data is retreivable manually with test function

TODO:

Load function
Save function
New Character Function
Tree Display
Record retreival
Delete record
Quit function
Disable window scaling
Set window title
Add status bar
Setup autobackup function storing last 10 saves
