    I have seen things like this 25 years ago, but they were bad programs. That's why god made relational data.
    You can still use text tables, but you will need to use a few of them and it will be a nightmare. If you can backend your code with an mdb or almost anything other than text you will be way ahead.
    Can you do this?
