| I have been gathering data of various organisations in a my town consiting of name,telephone and address etc I plan to use this on a web page at a later date. What backend database package should I use to input these values taking into consideration that at a later date a front end software like php or asp would need to access these values. Suggestions folks? |

| Dope Tech | how many? you could prolly pull this off with a flat file. csv, delimited text, or ms access. its doesn't sound like the workload will be that intensive. you could store the data in SQL, oracle, mysql, or any database software, but i thin it would be overkill. You could try all of these to gain experience. asp or php should be able to connect using odbc connections. php has functions to interact with mysql out of the box.

| Well I did consider using a .csv file but then there would be info relating to professionals, businesses, schools, colleges etc. I am developing this on the lines of yellow pages but with added feats such as rating by the readers etc. |
