Hello

For a educational program i am writing i need to store quite a bit of data, like name, age, wordlist (integer) and a whole lot of previous results.

This should all be easily accessible and changeable (adding rows and colums) and if posssible, not need anything else to run with the game.

Is this possible? and so how?

another easy way is to store all the information in files and then read the info back into the program at the startup. You could have one file for names, one for ages, one for words, etc. From there, you would just have to use variables along with the text command to place the data in the correct location
