The program can create and modify Database Structure, can add, update,delete data, can list data, can use basic SQL statements, can accomodate simple conditions, atleast 3 advanced statement can be used. Please help me, I dont have any idea.

Trying to figure out how to start? I'd just start with getting a few functions that save data in a csv or something... save and read it... then make a query function the would break the query up and try and figure out what the user wants.

CSV is just a file format... Comma separated value click HERE! That's just my suggestion. I've never made anything like that before but CSV's seem easy to parse through.
