How to create Database and tables

[lennie]

Hi guys,

I know, it's me again with more silly questions. Being new and using Windows version on IIS backbone. My next phase of learning requires me to create database and tables within it. I have tried but does know how to do it in PhP scripts. Is there a better way to do it ?? I am not using MYSQL.

Thanks very much

cheers,
Lennie

Since you are not using MySql, you must be using that other database.

Table creation via a PHP page is handy if you are making an installation script or something. It is also a handy way to save your structure. Some people prefer a database administration tool. I prefer a simple PHP page I made that allows me to type in raw SQL, then the page returns the results. I do most of my db and table creation there, then when I get a design I am happy with I save it in a php page.
