I assume this is a project for school?

Do you have to use a 'real', production database like MySQL? Or do you have to implement your own database (storing data in files in a structured way)?

And do you have experience with Pascal? A little, or a lot? And are you allowed to use Delphi (a RAD language based on Pascal)? Probably not, but if you are, it would make things a lot easier.

For FreePascal is library: http://www.freepascal.org/packages/mysql.html

In Java using database is very simple with DBMS drivers...

If you are using the borland delphi then you could use the dbexpress.
Go google and type in the dbexpress.
