    I've heard alot about table databases and spread sheet databases. Is it possible to create a database that simply contains files from the hard drive. Any answers are appreciated.

    I can do this way If it suits the environment.

    I Actually store path of the file name where it is residing in the database and store files in Directory called 'Files' in my machine.

    When i have to pull the information I will get file path and open the appropriate file from my hard drive which will be must faster.

    You can create 'Files' directory in local machine or on network where everybody can access.

    Ask me if you have any more questions about this.

    I hope this helps.
