Beginner Question
Thank you all of you database experts for responding to my questions.
I know how to use Access, but my hosting server can only handle a MySQL database.
Question: Is there a program like Access for MySQL?
If yes, where can I obtain it?
If no, how do I get started creating a MySQL database?
Thanks again.

Access for MySQL? I'm assuming you mean some kind of graphical front-end? If your host supports php, i highly recommend phpMyAdmin. There is also a windows mysql gui client that you can use, but it seems kind of slow and unwieldy to me. And of course, you can always just learn the mysql command line

Yes, I do mean a graphical interface. Thanks.

If your hosting company sets it up, you can connect to mySQL using an ODBC driver over the internet. I've never done it, but I've heard that it is possible. The trick is that the hosting company will have to un-block the port that ODBC will connect via.
