nCodian DBE

Summary nCodian™ DBE is a simple, flat file database engine in a .NET 1.1 class library DLL assembly. (There is also a version updated for .NET 2.0)

The engine provides the basic operations of a simple, flat file database engine:  create a database; open and close a database; write new records; update existing records; delete records; retrieve records (first, previous, next, last, by number, all records); filter records (search/find); import from and export to CSV and TSV formats.

Freeware / (Unlimited Evaluation Time)

Unregistered copies of the class library DLL may be used indefinitely within the Visual Studio IDE by passing "YourUserID" and "YourRegCode" to the constructor and running your code with a debugger attached.

Previously, this was a vertical market application. Beginning January 2, 2009 registration is freeware. Simply email nCodian™ asking for a free registration code. This allows you to compile and distribute applications using the DLL outside Visual Studio.
