dBase

This project aims to build a dBase like environment in C including its GUI. The main object in doing so is to implement concepts of Data Structure course, so all the operations will be done in memory using dynamic linked lists.

Scope

Simulate a system like classic dBase (80's / 90's) manipulating fields, records and data structures files ".DBF" with operations of Create, Read, Update, Delete and more
