A straight text file will probably give you more problems than you want, and may well slow things down considerably, rather than speed them up - mostly because a text file is a flat file, and does not do well for random access such as you will probably want for searching.
Have you considered a structured file instead? XML can do what you want, and Linq to XML should help there, or perhaps a simple database would be a better idea - SQLCE is simple, quick, requires no installation and lets you use most of the facilities of SQL.
