What is sql server, or rather, what is a server? Can i create a school database system for storing fees payments, and retrieving data required of each student/pupil with MS SQL SERVER ? lastly, what is the differtence between ms sql server, and oracle? Pls help

Microsoft SQL Server is a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) developed by Microsoft. It is a highly scalable product that can be run on anything from a single laptop, to a network of high-powered cloud servers, and anything in between. Of course, by "anything", it still needs to satisfy the usual hardware and software requirements, but these requirements are reasonably modest, considering what SQL Server is capable of.

SQL Server is the number 1 most-used database in the world. Well, according to Microsoft it is! But they could be right - it's certainly widely used.

erm if u wanna create a school database system for storing fees payments, and retrieving data u go need learn not only MS SQL SERVER but a programming language with which u will use to pull the data (possibly c# or vb.net)

i thought that everything required of making the aforementioned database is there and hence was no need to do some programming like, c# or vb.net. Is there not a software that does entering data and information required of a db without necessarily having to program? Pls help

there is. u could use the command line.

but seeing as u didn't know what a server is... that's probably not a good idea.

i am feeling sad, now, i don't know what to do. I have a slight C++ idea, and how can i best use it, in lieu of vb.net,a nd c++? Thank you in advance.

Guy u can connect to any DB using c++ (google is yr friend) but u know u need to use a language to pull the data from the database to present to yr users. Learning vb.net or c# ain't hard since u say u knw a little c++ the learning curve wil nt be much.if u want smethin u gat to try all yr possible best to get it , i mean all these tutorials are free online, wat more do we want, people took time to pay for hosting and bandwidth to put it online all we gat do is learn,

So guy stop whining if u knw u nid it get off yr ass and learn, research and be better, watsapp was sold for $19 billion,before person sell app for 19 billa dem tell u say na beans so guy u have the tools free online go research and get it. U can start from here http://www.homeandlearn.co.uk/index.html to get c# and vb.net tutorials used with mssql database, i tell u if u are consistent and persevere u can learn this thing sharply.

If u still cannot learn on yr own contact me i will put u through if u are in lagos.

i still got a long way to go, dawg, but what a man's got to do's what a man's got to do. Man, if i say i am in trouble, i am in real big treouble. Now, here's the simplicity of what i know in c++, which basically says a lot about how far i have to go before i get a grasp into putting code into a db. Ok, #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { cout<<" i do not know what to do from here"<<endl; return 0; } i have inscribed a basic c++ code, but when i reach here, i get so confused about what command i have to put to savem create a db, retrieve data info, printing and so on. I gey so stressed if someone would tell me that this is so easy, and i basically feel powerless. What i know for sure is that, if i can be able to make my program to save, and retrieve data, i'd have creaated a database system because by saving data, we are basically saving it for storage purposes. And if we can retrieve the saved data, it means that we have actually created a db whereby we store info, and we retrieve for use. Guy, if you can be able to aid me on how to save, and retrieve data in c++ using command line code, i'll thank you exceedingly. I have tried using google to seek the way, but now, google will give results of how you can do it in c, i am left dumbfounded as to where to start from. I tell you man if one can master programming, they have part of the world in their arms. Thank you for your overbounding kindness in this one matter. Looking forward to your response to this intertwinung posse. Thank you.

OK U and yr c++, i found this google search result for you the first result is a pdf book connecting with mqsql++ download and read

Also was checking online and saw this site u can in learning online http://www.learncpp.com/

But i still say u better off learning c# it ain't too hard to comprehend since u have c++ background, a more modern language. Anyways yr choice

ok, thanks. I will look into it, though i would have sufficed in you presenting straight simplified code on linking it up. You know i am still learning this programming thing. I did a certain program in 2012 but still struggling to make it run other tasks, like saving, and printing a receipt, but, bro i am still struggling, and I am almost losing hope. I love C++ but the thing is i do not have the technical know how, on exceptionally working on it. Now if i hear linking up c++ which i know, but don't fully know, with ms sql server, which i am a few weeks old on, i feel hopeless. Now, i am hearing of mysql++, man, things are hard i am telling you. But thank you, bro for bringing some bit of light on whats it all about.

Don't count a and then Z. Start with the basics
Doing c/c++ in database connectivity isn't something u do in a day, lol its not like taking off ur gfs panties.
Connecting to database in c/c++ is using some libraries using mysql connector in c++ then you do something like #include mysql++ in your code

By the way, have you taken your time to look into youtube? If you haven't kindly do yourself a favour and look thru. Then write a code and where u have problems paste here, someone with a good heart will help u.

Have a good day.
