Computer Index Card Database Software
A replacement for Microsoft Cardfile.exe, Azz Cardfile is a simple database software that resembles paper index cards on your computer.
The concept is simple - each record (cards) consists of Title - that's what you see in List - and card contents where you enter the info.
Select the needed Title in List and the right pane displays that cards contents. As simple as that for starter, but the program is sophisticated enough and has many customization options for advanced user.
If needed, the program and .azz data files can be easily transferred to USB Flash Memory Drive - have all that important information at your fingertips, whenever you need it.
Best of all, there are no predefined fields which means information can be arranged the way you like or easily copied from other documents.
AZZ Cardfile is a replacement to old MS cardfile.exe that went standard in Windows 3.x, we believe it is a must have program for every PC computer owner.
Shareware - MS Windows 95 / Windows 98 / Windows 2000 / Windows NT / Windows ME / Windows XP / Windows Vista / Windows 7 compatible

Types of File Organization
Heap (unordered) File Organization
Records are placed in file in the same order as they are inserted. A new record is inserted in the last page of the file; if there is insufficient space in the last page, a new page is added to the file. This makes insertion very efficient. However, as a heap file has no particular ordering with respect to field values, a linear search must be performed to access a record. A linear search involves reading pages from the file until the required is found. This makes retrievals from heap files that have more than a few pages relatively slow, unless the retrieval involves a large proportion of the records in the file.
