I'm starting to develop an application similar to an address book, task
manager, etc.
I'm going to develop this using C#, but that doesn't matter, my problem is
another.

I need to store contacts, tasks and a few other similar things.
What do you recommend for storing this kind of data? XML files, Access
database, MSDE database... ?

Before starting I want to be sure I'm using the most efficient way.

Thanks in advance.
 
I think that this kind of (relational) data is best stored in a
database, not in an XML file.
Which database to chose is up to you. You could try MSDE, or an
alternative (like Sqlite).
