MS SQL Server 2005 Express Question?
I have SQL Server 2005 installed. How do you go about creating (Tables with Fields etc.. ) I am taking an Intro to SQL class and thought MS SQL Server 2005 Express would be nice to use I was planning on using Access 07' but changed my mind.. Just get me started or offer me some ideas. Was it good to install SQL Server? Did I download the wrong program to learn SQL? thx 10pts up for grabs!

SQL Server 2005 Express is good...
But, Oracle SQL 9i is much better...
However...learning both these backend areas is recommended as it is always helpful...
Good u changed ur mind !!!
I'll give u a concrete example of creating tables :
Table Name : emp...
Create Table emp
(
empno numeric(4) primary key not null,
ename varchar(25),
sal numeric(8,2)
)
Here the above table includes 3 fields...wherein
empno will always be unique
ename is the employee name whereas salary is numeric !!!
I hope this example would be helpful for you ...

Express is fine, but doesn't come with any administration tools, on purpose!!! (Same with MSDE)
Google "sql server administration tool" and find something free (or close to free) that you can use. Doing administration (tables, etc) from a command line is a waste of time.
