Why not switch to a relational database?

You mean treat a flat file like a database? There is no default functionality for this kind of thing within standard java. Your best bet might be to try to set up a windows specific ODBC driver(or something applicable to whatever platform you are using) to a file that can do these things you want, and then use that within java.

Then yes, there is a way to do that with classes in the java.io package. Your basic tool is the RandomAccessFile class. Beyond that it's up to you to design your own indexing methods and everything else that is normally done by databases.
