Storing information into a database.

Hey guys, i am having a problem in storing new data into a text file.

The database in in a text file and it displays information like this :

Name : Price : Quantity
Persia : 80 : 30

Now , i have written the code to check if the book already exist in the Databse.

Code:
Number=
echo -n "Title : "
read number
if grep -q "$number" Hello1  ; then
echo "hello"
fi
}

If the book does not exist , how do i go about to getting it to store inside the database?
