I made a program with only small databases let say with maximum of 500 entries, and each entry consisting of maybe 50-150 bytes of information. Now I have a different problem, the client said that he would like to have it all in one place mostly for searching options. So which database to choose? For these few entires I used paradox because I found it simple enough to use, but will it withstand let's say 100.000 - 200.000 entires and still be stable enough, or should I choose something else. Thanks for all the info. Like I say, I'm rather new in database business so maybe it's a bit dumb question, but I'm not too keen on rewriting a program again when I realize that paradox is not strong enough.

Ok, never mind, found it on Borland Site, it says that paradox can withstand 1 Billion records in one table, so i guess it'll do just fine for a number that is more than thousand times smaller.
