B Correct answer
Explanation

An external database is typically defined as a database created using a DBMS package (like Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL) that exists outside the current application. While Excel can store data in a tabular format, it's not considered a true database in the formal sense. MS-Word is definitely not a database. Option B is the most accurate answer.
