May I humbly suggest you buy my book, "Revolution: Software at the Speed of Thought" from the Rev storefront? I think it is aimed at the entry-level to early mid-level user (at least that's its intent). That said, your statement of the problem you're trying to solve, unless I'm misreading it, misues the word "simply." Setting up a database is non-trivial and not for beginners. OTOH, if what you mean is a stack with a bunch of cards containing text that you can display as needed or randomly, that's a piece of cake.
