| Hi,Apologies if I have posted this in the incorrect section, I wasn't sure where it should go.My question is quite a simple one, as part of a University coursework I willbe designing a DB using mySQL (which I can manage). One section of the coursework requires me to design an application interface that a user can add/delete/update the details of the DB. I was wondering what language you guys thought would be best to achieve this? I was wondering if C# would be a good option as I have a little experience in C++ and would be easier for me to learn that language than others!Thanks,Darren. |

| Note that this is a Microsoft SQL forum, so folk here may not know much about MySQL (not relevant to this question though ...)I would go with whichever application language you are most familiar with (and which can be used for a database interface ...)You may want to have a Goggle for the term CRUD if you are not familiar with it. Create, Read, Update, Delete - which refers to the job of an application programmer having to make user interfaces for those tasks. It is quite common to mechanically generate all the code for CRUD. In our applications 80% of the tables in the database have CRUD maintenance forms / routines that are unchanged from the code that was mechanically generated - maintaining Country Codes and Description, for example, is Bog Standard! The other 20% of the tables have really complicated non-standard stuff with complex relationships to child tables etc. |
