Leemeng writes "I'm looking for a simple, free and preferably OSS flat-file database program.
Basically, I'm just storing info about Wifi APs that I come across. Maybe 8-9 fields per entry. I've since outgrown Notepad, and figured this info should be stored in a database. This info is for my own reference only; it is not going on a web server.
Googling was unhelpful, with results skewed towards SQL, Access (MS), and Oracle, all of which would be overkill for my purposes.
My criteria is, it must be simple, F/OSS, must work in Windows Vista, preferably use a portable format, must _not_ be an online app, and does not require Java.
Does such a beast exist?"

hand, if he were already in, I don't think they'd let him out."

Free, tight, and tested... but perhaps overkill! (Score:1)
