Re: noob : advice on design?
fast and dirty - http://www.geekgirls.com/menu_databases.htm Do the design from scratch on the right side.

I recently purchased a book named "Database design for mere mortals", which seems to be very slow going, and is going to take me forever to get through the 550 pages. I'm not looking for a quick fix, but there has to be some middle ground. Is there anywhere I can go to get a reasonable working knowledge of database design just so I can get started with the task I have been given. In the meantime I can make my way through this book. So, where do I go to learn about the initial design, seeing as it is so crucial? -- Respectfully, Ligaya Turmelle "Life is a game so have fun" -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
noob : advice on design?
Dear Group, I have just completed the Sams MySQL in 24 hours and feel like I now have a reasonable understanding of creatinf queries, etc. However, the one area that seemed sadly lacking was that of database design. I recently purchased a book named "Database design for mere mortals", which seems to be very slow going, and is going to take me forever to get through the 550 pages. I'm not looking for a quick fix, but there has to be some middle ground. Is there anywhere I can go to get a reasonable working knowledge of database design just so I can get started with the task I have been given. In the meantime I can make my way through this book. So, where do I go to learn about the initial design, seeing as it is so crucial? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
