Best Database Configures with c# win. form

Then you are using the wrong terms. "Manipulate" means updating, inserting or deleting records. Reading doesn't manipulate the data, it fetches it. Selecting a few million should be doable, depending on the hardware and software-combination and the skillset of the dba.

sorry, for all this.i have corrected my reply.

Databases are optimized to work with records; there will be a HUGE difference between searching records (select using a where) and searching a specific substring within a NTEXT field. If you are going to search within the contents of the fiels, you'd be wanting a full-text search catalog. Again, supported by most major databases, but their speed may vary wildly. Can you post a schema of the data that you'll be storing? Should I be thinking about simple data like measurements or prices? (lots o' fields with numbers) Or more toward text? (lots of short readable text-fields, like profiles), more toward memo's (single large textfield), or even documents (Word, PDF?) In the case of documents I'd suggest to dump the files in the filesystem - and to use something like Google Desktop Search to search for specific terms.

Don't be; for someone who doesn't code all those things might sound roughly the same. Sorry for my short and blunt answers.

no sir, it consists of data which is converted into bytes.

Everything that a computer stores is encoded in bytes; images, text, applications - they're all stored as bytes. Hence, the remark that it's going to store bytes is not very helpfull. That way I'd assume a large binary blob, and "searching" to be a series of bytes. Those bytes represent something; data, in whatever form. What "kind" of data you're going to store determines the best approach.

no i am using it in such way that each record has max. 25 letters

actually i am already working on sql but i am not sure that it can manage 100 million record. somebody suggested me oracle is oracle better than SQL.

I've worked with a SQL database that had a single table with a few billion rows (Inventory type stuff). So, yea SQL can scale as far as you need it too.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Yup, never a problem. The table was indexed for the usage.

Does "Indexed" mean using primary key as filter or something else?
