Thanks Hassan,

will order a Ruby on Rails book.

You won't if you're using Rails :-)

I need a web MySQL data base for a non profit organisation. The aim of
the organisation is to find free help for people in misery. For this
purpose we want to have a MySQL web database with adresses.  I'm a
software developer and I have no experience with Ruby on Rails.
What kind of "software developer"? What /do/ you have experience
with?  Web app development? Other languages, frameworks?

A moderately experienced Rails developer could probably knock out
that basic app -- minus any "pretty" :-) -- in a day. How long it would
take *you* to learn enough to write it is impossible to say.

I would suggest "Agile Web Development with Rails" for a book for an experienced programmer. Most experienced developers will tell you not to attempt to develop a Rails app on Windows, Linux or MacOS are the recommended platforms. Support of Rails by IDEs is spotty. Most experts will tell you that IDEs are not needed or helpful in Rails development.
