Note: I don't want to use DMS (data base management system) like MS SQL server or MySql, I just want to use text files or custom format file

      A regular dictionary with words and meanings? Or a spell-check dictionary (no meanings)? Back in college (late 80s), one of the assignments was to implement a spell-check dictionary. For that, the words were stored in a text file, but read into a special structure. I suppose it could be extended to include a meaning too. Either way, today I'd just stick with a database. In fact a few years back I wrote a simple Scrabble word checker application -- currently it uses an Access database.
