I am interested in building a small portable relational data base in C. Initially it would be stricly single-user. Does anyone know of a good book on developing data bases. I do not want db design books relating to logical and schema designs but on actually developing a working data base. I am interested in what data structures would be appropriate (depending on my criteria - such as speed, integraty, etc.) for key files, and how best to implement field relations. I'm also wanting to know the best way to hook a SQL parser into the dbms for queries, reports, etc. that are efficient, flexible, and so on. Any pointers would be a great help. Thanks in advance. -- Sincerely, Mark Pledger -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CTI | (703) 685-5434 [voice] 2121 Crystal Drive | (703) 685-7022 [fax] Suite 103 | Arlington, DC 22202 | mpledger@cti.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "To boldly go where no 'C' has gone before" --------------------------------------------------------------------------

A good one is "The Practical SQL Handbook" by Sandra L. Emerson, Marcy Darnovsky and Judith S. Bowman. Published by Addison-Wesley.
