Hi again Ian,

The following thread discusses SQL (slightly):
http://216.10.4.112/forums/showthread.php?threadid=12506

You should first decide what dbms you are going to use (Access, mySQL, etc), then go through their tutorials (so you familiarize yourself with their idiosyncracies). Next learn SQL (through a book preferably). Finally, learn the language -- usually asp or php -- that will deliver the database's data to the web (if that's where you want it to go).

Besides the tutorial roBofh mentioned, there is one at sitepoint (for php & mySQL) and probably a thousand of them for ASP at msdn.microsoft.com/workshop , http://www.freeASP.com and other asp sites. But realize: these sites & tutorials assume you already know databases and sql

Personally, I like the tutorials on http://www.devshed.com, even if they don't really mention any DB's other than MySQL.
