hey yall, I'm workin on this project where you can get answers to a certain 
exam (like if you're a teacher or instructor, u can use it to show to your 
students).  All of the answers are multiple choices.  Each exam has anywhere 
between 25 and 70 questions.  I want to know the best way to store the 
answers.  Currently I am approaching it with 2 tables.  The first table has 
info about the exam (name, date, subject, etc)  the second table contains 
the answers, and has the ExamID next to it (one row equals one answer).  I 
was thinking that by doing that, I will get too many rows.  like what if 
there are 500 exams.  25 times 500 is a lot of rows!  i am concerned about 
the speed.  Is there a way to store the answers?  or is the DB good enough 
to handle that much stuff?  i'm using SQL server 7.0, the box has 512mb and 
900mhz processor (it's a dev box also).  thank you! :)
