Building Simple Databases

Introduction

To learn the basics of KEXI we will build a simple database utilizing most of the elementary features of KEXI. To make things simpler, advanced database design topics will not be covered here.

We start by creating a new empty Phone Book.

Having a new empty database project, perform the following steps:

  1. Design database tables. Read the following section called Designing Database Tables.
  2. Enter data into tables. Read the following section called Entering Data Into Tables.
  3. Design database queries. Read the following section called Designing Database Queries.
  4. Design forms. Read the following section called Designing Forms.
  5. Use forms to enter data. Read the following section called Entering Data Using Forms.
