On the program we made last Tuesday we added a Combo Box with different SQL statements in it so that when one was selected and the run button pushed a query using the selected SQL statement is displayed.

Databases

What is a database?

A database is a group of organized information that relates to a topic/subject/task/job etc. This information is sorted into tables with columns(fields) and rows(records). Databases are extremely useful when having to deal with a heap of data and information.
