hvilket program skal jeg bruge

MS Access

Microsoft Access is a VERY good database to start off with and it can do things which Oracle can NOT. For example you can make a working program with forms and reports etc.
You can buy Access on its own or included with Office. You get MUCH more for your money getting Office with Access. No I'm not working for Bill, but I have worked with Oracle, MS SQL Server and other database´s.

Terry har ret, Access er en OK start. Du kan f.eks. tilføje mySQL (Gratis) og forbinde denne via ODBC. Så har du allerede to varianter at lege med.

If you get Office 2000 > then there is also soemthing called MSDE included (FREE). This is a cut down version of MS SQL server 7.0. So youcanactually make MS SQL Server databases and IF needed you can upgrade at a later date. Its optimized for about 5 users and limited to 2 GB.

Access er spild af tid, hent Mysql fra www.mysql.com og læs om SQL på følgende side:

hi disky>MySQL might be free and also a good database, but generally it is for those programming for the WEB and I would also say for those who ALREADY have som eknowledge of databases. So for eric... to start with that would in my opinion NOT be a good idea. Access is VERY user friendly MySQL is NOT!

Dont gte me wrong it is VERY good for what it is intended for but that isnt for beginners!

Lige præcis hvilken db du skal bruge vil jeg ikke blande mig i. Jeg vil istedet anbefale en bog:

Normalt er jeg ikke meget for dise 'små' hæfter, men dette her ligger altid på mit tastatur. Der er en overskuelig gennemgang af de vigtigste SQL komandoer.
