Vb.net - array, database or sql
I am doing my project for level-level computation and I am facing a problem that I am not sure how to solve it. I'm doing something similar to a student information management system and I want to keep a small list of students, maybe 5 to 10, preferably in my program, and reference them from all forms and so that if anything- Something changed on one of the students, perhaps some of the information that this information is carried over to the next form. My teacher has very little programming knowledge and so I am not stuck, I have no experience with databases or sql, however, if anyone wants to break it, be very grateful and I got a good understanding of arrays. My deadline is 10 of them, so please, thank you, thank you - Kyle

If you prefer simplicity, I'll stick with a CSV file or XML. I found a website that provides an end-to-end tutorial on how to create XML and add elements (students) to it using VB.net, according to your tag. You only need after you read them from the file, but can add a new one as well:

I would stick with XML (or CSV as preferred) as it is a text file so you can see and make changes if needed.
