There is a way, you use the array syntax to get at a specific value in the
query. Someone already posted about how to do this:
#myQuery['myColumn'][rowNumber]#.

To be clear, you don't want to condense your work into a couple of
databases. You want to normalize your single database to keep the data in
the proper tables. Right now you are proposing having separate tables for
every course. So that means every time a course gets added, you have to go
in and actually create a table, indexes, primary keys, and all the rest?
That is extremely inefficient and will absolutely not work over the long
term. So good luck with your study of database design, it's actually pretty
interesting and is something that will be useful knowledge for a very long
time.
