> I need a little advice on where to get started. I want to create a db and simple form that will populate the db. Which language is best? What should I read to help me along? That's pretty hard to answer since you haven't said anything about your skills, your environment, etc. Java is a really neat language but there's a pretty substantial learning curve to it. If you already know one or more programming languages, you should say so; it's quite possible that the language you already know can be used to do the work you require. If you are doing this work strictly on your own and for yourself, you can choose pretty much any language like Java, Perl, Php, C, C++, etc. On the other hand, if you are part of an IT shop, you should probably use the shop language, whatever it is. If you are doing this work for a customer and will hand maintenance of the program over to them, you should choose a language that your customer can support. Etc. etc. There are many possible options but the best one depends on your situation.
