Re: [SLUG] Databases, some advice please.

[Brad Kowalczyk]

I've just started out teaching myself SQL using mySQL as a platform, the 
learning curve has been very comfortable so far. I am using it primarily 
for web based stuff and find using mySQL and PHP together almost too 
easy, that said I barely have my toes wet yet :-) . I find that the 
documentation is also very thorough and there are plenty of online 
tutorials to run through.

cheers,
Brad

I'd like to teach myself something on databases.

The table of Window equivalents lists:---
1) KNoda
2) Gnome DB Manager
3) OpenOffice + MySQL
4) InterBase7 (Prop)
5) InterBase6 (Presumably no longer Prop)
6) Berkley DB
7) Rekall (Prop)
8) StarOffice Adabase
Has anyone any experience of any of these that they'd like to air?
As I have only (very, ancient) limited experience of Access, I think
thorough documentation would be a high priority.
Any help, comments etc. 

Regards,

Bill Bennett.
