Hi all (im new to these parts of town)
A computer technician has asked to look at a database, and see if i could create one like it (but better) in SQL. I have never used SQL before and even had trouble installing it - i have win2000 prof (and SQL server 2000 standard edition).
He wants this database to get data from an electronic testing device. After the results of each test are gathered the database will analyse cetain values, and see if numbers are decreasing at a certain rate etc etc.
My main question is will a person with no real SQL knowledge (except for the SQl comands used in creating databases with a VB front end) be able to create such a database? Obviously i will do some research on the net, and also find as many books as possible, but could i create it?
Thank you so much, i know the question is very vague but even pointing me in the right starting direction will be of great benefit.
