UDFs will become your best friend.. These are "User Defined Functions" and there are hundreds available. My entire UDF library is published nightly at 8pm EDT. Many, many more are here on KORG.
Search for a UDF, copy/paste it into your code and call it like any other Kix function. The first that comes to mind is the CSV UDF, which converts between an array of data and a CSV formatted text string (and Vice Versa).
You might also review the use of Read and WriteProfileString to manipulate INI files. These can be looked at as a very simple database, with Sections as Tables, Values as Records, and the data referenced by the value as the fields. This is particularly true if you use CSV formatted data in the values!
Kix makes this much easier than many other languages, with embedded support for INI and Registry manipulation.
Again - provide us with the concepts and we'll help.. Pseudo-code, as shown below, is very helpful.Read file, get XXX data
Check registry, if not found, add
Process next
