Storing/Retreiving data from an Applet

[Gav]

I am trying to write an Applet for my web page that will allow people to log
in and read/modify information. The problem I have is that I am not sure
what is the best way to store/retreive the information. I have an account
with brinkster.com which gives me access to an MS Access database through
a DSN less connection, which I could use if it is possible. Otherwise I will
be using standard web space with no DB Server.

Thanks in Advance

The best way to store information is XML. Its very easy to store information
in XML format and easy to retrieve info. Since XML is a standard flat file
you can use easily in your web hosting space. There are some commercial
databse capable products which works with XML directly.
