aha .. that sounds like you're better off not using any kind of database
product ..
Next question is the programming language you want to use because
* e.g. in C++ and Java there are serializer libraries which will reduce the job
to almost no code or libraries that encapsulate XML ... * PL/I and C would be o.k. in a way that you can use recursive data structures
(just a plain tree ...) - you could steal this from any book on data structures
using C - there are plenty of them
* Cobol ... did it support recursion ? :-) - uuuuughh
so .. we still need some more facts here ..
