Description
Overview
Once you have data in the database, it is important to be able to query the database using SQL statements to retrieve and modify information from the database. Some of these queries will be for reporting, while others can be used to create dynamic input fields such as drop-down boxes. The SQL SELECT statement in its basic structure has the mandatory SELECT clause and the FROM clause. However, many other clauses can be used, including the WHERE and GROUP BY clauses. In addition, you can perform various functions on the columns. The SQL INSERT statement provides a way to add data to a table in a database. The SQL UPDATE statement provides a way to modify data that already exist in a database table. You need to gain some experience using these SQL statements so that you are prepared to use them in your Capestra application.
In this assignment, you will create various SQL statements to interact with the database. These statements (queries) will reflect functionality to be implemented within your application. Use the MySQL Workbench to do all the work in this assignment. Use the provided CreateOES.sql MySQL script to create an ‘orderentrysystem’ database. Use this script and the database that it creates as the base for the following tasks and for all remaining work in this course. This script replaces the one that you developed in Week 5.
