Greetings.
How big will your database be?

you could use microsoft access. but i would recommend mysql :)

Hi
Well i'm working on the design(structure) because i'll be using it with an application over a network. so i need to consider security.
If Access, can be used with users in a domain(creating, setting permissions etc), I could use it because i'm more familiar with it. but don't know how to go around to integrate it over a network if i can say that.

Any suggestions :mad:

well since this is goin to be ran on a network from multiple computer. i recommend mysql. it runs on either linux or windows. and works great for networked computers to access it :)
