Firebird is cross platform (you would need the classic server version)

Subject: Database recommendations for Windows app


Hi,

I'd like to write a windows app that accesses a locally stored database.

There are a number of tables, the largest of which has 455,905 records.

Can anyone recommend a database that runs on Windows, is fast / 
efficient and can be shipped without restrictions or extra downloads?

I have googled and found plenty of information on databases, its just 
that I dont have enough experience with databases to know which one is 
best for my task!


Thanks in advance,

Will McGugan
