    Help with a simple online database

    ok what i need is a simple searchable database online web page...let me explain

    all i want to be able to do is have a list of peoples job titles and postcodes which i can update and be able to produce a web page where poeple can search in those two fields and return the information.

    now I know your going to scream at me with MySQL.

    but is there anyway else as being new to database systems I dont really want to have to learn mysql to do something as 'simple' as this. or are there any programs or premaid scripts that can be easily altered

    thanks for any help

    The easiest why i found, is to go for mysql, then use one of thenumerous frontends to create your tables and input your data.

    If you use access with the same table structure you can create queries in that, then change to sql view, and (most of teh time) copy and paste.

    I'm pretty sure MS Access has some sort of publish to web wizard you could use. Create the tables, create the queries, publish to web
