now it's easy peasy but its hard when it dosnt work lol Please try go stay serious, we don't appreciate non-technical terms like "lol" here. QUOTE data bases are easy in theend as long as you have all the pass words host address ect. That's the minimum level of security, needing hostnames, usernames and passwords in order to access the data. |

SQL is actually a very interesting, if old, computer language design. Borrowing from Wikipedia:
QUOTE During the 1970s, a group at IBM's San Jose research center developed the System R relational database management system, based on the model introduced by Edgar F. Codd in his influential paper, A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks. Donald D. Chamberlin and Raymond F. Boyce of IBM subsequently created the Structured English Query Language ... Note the word shared. If you ever need an environment with really large bandwidth servers, you will be glad you use something based on SQL. It is designed to minimize the data transfer between the database and the requesting computer. In 1989, my wife was working on a Master's in Computer Science, and she jumped at the opportunity to go to a seminar given by Codd. He had just come out with a new book. He was famous in her circles for Codd's 26 Rules of relational database design. She heard he had added a few rules. She wondered, "Was it 30, maybe 36?" It turned out to be 126, and the talk was one of the more opaque she attended (No connection to OpaQue! |

Actually to be honest I thought MySQL was pretty easy. Simply connect to a database then you can get all the results simply by using an * and arraying the tables. The only trouble I have ever had (and I’m still having so if you have an answer please tell me) is connecting to a MySQL server from an external location for example a clients download. Other then that I had no problem learning MySQL. You should use this site if you need help with it: here. It is very simple and good to use just for documentation purposes or if you forget the format of something. The only thing to watch out for is MySQL injection or hacks. I believe the website above has a basic solution for them if you are using PHP.
Good luck at learning MySQL and don't forget it is less complicated then you think. By the way one nice thing about MySQL is that it is almost identical in every language ex PHP, Java and C++. Sparkx Also wutske I have never seen a MySQL code that complicated... I wish I would have known about the sooner, probably would have made my life a lot easier then when I was trying to loading two or more tables with lots of statements (that was fun...). yaoersd just a suggestion, try making longer posts, they look better on hosting applets. |

Just remember it is just hard to think in terms of DBs. Once you get the hang of mysql it becomes really easy. Just learn sql language a little bit and the rest comes easy. If you consider php to handle mysql i would also consider using phpMyAdmin. It works great for creating and managing tables so you can query them later.
