I'm personally partial to databases myself and at a thousand records a database is good idea, or an indexed file. Depends on what you want to do with it in the end which should resolve the problem. Do you need it to accessed (read & write) by multiple people ? Or would it just be a single transaction process (ie. just you locally) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
