I would not use access to learn SQL. I found that Access bore little
relation to mySQL or Oracle at the command line because it insists on
brackets and all sorts of crap. mySQL has been really easy so far and the
manual is quite comprehensive with lots of examples. I would like to use
Postgres on my machine instead of mySQL but I have been unable to find a
tutorial on how to get it onto Windows yet so mySQL will do in the mean
time.

Harry.
