As long as you dont need network support, you can get "C Database Toolchest"
from Mix Software.  It does not support multiusers, but for a single DOS 
application, I have found it to be indispensible, especially when looking
at price/performance.  The toolchest plus all source is only ~35 bucks.

I have been very pleased with it.  It comes with an example generic database
application.  It is an ISAM library, implemented on top of a B+ tree
library.

Their address is:

Mix Software
1132 Commerce Drive
Richardson, TX 75081


They have an 800 order number, but it's at home.  If you want it, send
me e-mail.  They have normal ground, 2 day blue, and next day delivery
service.
