This is a total newbie question. I hope it isn't too vague.

I am well-versed in excel, but want to learn SQL. The problem is I don't know much about programming and don't know where to start. What I mainly don't understand is how to set up my own SQL database on my computer, and then access it through some visual language. Eventually I would like to create a website where users can login and manipulate the SQL database using an HTML interface like you encounter on regular webpages.

Where do I start? Thank you so much.

Solution 1

I would recommend start here[^].

There are thousands if not more technologies, platforms and frameworks for web developement. CP content, predominantly, is for MS technologies so most content here would revolve around that.

Solution 2

.. and if after d@nish's advice, you'd like to start with MySQL, look here http://www.mysql.com/[^]

MySQL (or even SQLite) are great databases for starting with - there's always plenty of help around on their own sites, as well as Google
