Reading data using Atmel

hi
i have one txt file, containing the times and some symbols code, i want to read it using Atmel89S51, the txt file is in my PC, but i want to save it on RAM/Mu or any other storage media, how can i do it

the pattern of txt file is like this
day , Symbol code 1, time 1, symbol code 2, time 2 .............

0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00
0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00
: :
: 0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00,0,12:00

each line is, for one day, so it will be, 365 lines, or 366
the "," and ":" are not necessarily
it may be like this

0120001200012000120001200
------------
using storage media, which is suitable, and how can i do it
or any other Atmel Mc having a large number of RAM, where is create a text array
the requirement is to save data at one time, then read it, i mean no need to rewrite/update.

i m Using C

  • Best is to either use EEPROM (external I2C or SPI-connected or better a processor with EEPROM internally) or select a processor that allows you to perform In Application Programming (IAP) so you can store the data in the code flash
    I do not know about 'best', I'd use a parallel flash (you can get 2 Mbyte for ~$3).
