Setting up a Chemical database
I have a customer who has sent my close to 300 chemical products in word format? How do I translate this into mysql tables? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Setting up a Chemical database
One table should be sufficient to handle this with one record for each product. - Asad On Mon, 4 Apr 2005, Dave Shariff Yadallee - System Administrator a.k.a.

Re: Setting up a Chemical database
I'm afraid we can't tell you anything with virtually no information given by you. What is a product? Which are the informations you want to hold about a product? How do they relate to each other? What is the purpose of the database? Which sort of informations are people supposed to get out of it? If you answer these questions for yourself, the design should become visible. If any doubts, ask, but please be specific.

Dave, I have a customer who has sent my close to 300 chemical products in word format? How do I translate this into mysql tables? Save it from Word as comma- or tab-delimited, create a MySQL database table, use ODBC Admin to create a DSN for that database, open the MySQL database in Access, in the Access database window click Tables on the Objects bar, select Get External Data from the File menu, click Import.
