A simple command-line based record management system that allows users to create, update, and retrieve personal records stored in text files with date and time tracking.

The Record Management Software is a Python-based application designed to help users maintain a personal progress log or record file. Each user can create a uniquely named .txt file where they can continuously add records. Every entry is automatically saved along with the current date and time using the datetime module.The program also checks for existing files using the os module and allows users to retrieve previously saved records. This project focuses on practicing core Python concepts such as file handling, functions, loops, conditional statements, and standard library usage.

-The user enters their name.

-The user specifies the name of the file where records should be stored.

-The program checks whether the file already exists:

-If not, it creates the file and writes a welcome message.

-If yes, it allows the user to:

.Add new records

.Retrieve and view existing records

.Deelte the file if the user wants

.Each record is saved with a timestamp using the datetime module.
