Bono, there are different possible solutions for that. You could use a simple text file if ony a few informations has to be kept. Other way is using cvs (more record / dataset related text file - there is a module in python for this), or using json format ( also like cvs and easy to hande if you have stored data in a dictionary - also with a module in python). For more complex information to store or import export xml can be used, alos with a module in python. But this can be much more complexe than the other possibilities. And last but not least, a small implementation of sql (sqlite) could be used, but if i understand you right, this looks a bit "over-engineered" for your purpose. It was also mentioned here to use access - that is a Microsoft product but only running on Windows. It's a quiet good product, and i did a lot of programming with it, but it can not be something of choice here. But whatever you select, it needs a bit of coding and knowledge.

Bono, what do you mean by asking "without coding"? Do you talk about creating and setup a database file, or do you mean using the database file by user?

If you want it simple save it as a xml file. I am sure that your language of choice supports XML manipulation too.
