Hi Everyone im looking at doing some simple iphone apps and would like some advice for data storage so as i get a feel for the best methods etc.
its a simple list of data i want to store and it will be static as well, however it could be quite a few items.
it would go something like this
P0001 | description of what it means.
P0002 | description of what it means.
etc
i'm just after ideas on the best way to store this information really, it could end up being a few 1000 items long (not finished compiling the list yet) and i need to quickly search them and display the description.
i was thinking on using a dictionary item for them (but that only seems to store a string and an object ref which seems over the top, or a static two column array ? would a core data app be over the top (if thats even what i need).
thanks for the info in advance.
