Hi Master T,

The first thing you need to find out is if yous host supports databases and/or if it comes with the existing account.
And there are generally 2 kinds: MySQL(unix/Linux) and Access(Windows)

Then head on over to www.hotscripts.com
There's plenty of free and paid programs that may accomplish what you are looking to do

The server that hosts this site will determine what db you can use.

I never liked Access, if this is the route you plan to take go with Visual Foxpro. It is much more robust.

MySQL seems to be everywhere, it works really well on Linux. I am not thrilled with it on Windows.
