    I need to display text on my app.
    the text is about 150 chrecters long.
    Would it be recomended to store this text in a field in a database table?
    Is it possible to store so much text in a database table?
    (I meen in one record).
    Would it be recomended to store the text in a text file and just open the file and copy the info to my app every time I need it??
    My biggest concern is the speed.
    Thanks.
    Dan.

    The fastest way would be to keep it in a const(if it never changes) or a varable(if it changes) in your program. I would think.
