Thanks buddy

if i was you i would use xml, look it up.. it's very simple

+1 on this. XML is much better data transfer format. You'll have more options for working with the data in the future if you choose XML. JSON's a good choice, too.

You can have it stream two different files to one directory. Have it create a new XML file and .txt file, unless you want there to be one massive XML file where you can then have a combobox to select the different entry names to make edits to.

Hey would you mind telling me what XML is used for? I have a book that I found in my dads pile of books that teaches XML, but from what i've seen it's not really useful. I prefer powerful languages that can do lots of things...what is XML's purpose and is it really neccessary to learn or should is it a language that is not needed often?

Well XML is not there to display data but it does carry it, however it is a markup language like HTML.
You can also define your own tags since there not predefined.

XML actually does NOTHING it's more of a structure than anything... It can be a little hard to understand since XML was created to structure, store, and transport information forwards/backwards. Below is an example of a note to you (caleb01), from me (LouisSimpson), stored as XML:

But before continuing to learn this 'structure/language' it's good to have some sort of understanding with HTML, Javascript this is not really necessary but will work in an advantage. Both XML and HTML was designed for different approaches and goals:

- XML was created/designed to store data as well as transport it with focus on what data is.
- HTML was created/designed to display data as well as focus on how it looks.
