What you need is a book on the basics of database design. I do not know of one that has been translated into Indonesian. You may check out lists of English-language books at: http://techdocs.postgresql.org/bookreviews.php and http://www3.us.postgresql.org/books/index.html If English books are no use to you, or exchange rates put them out of your price range, e-mail me back and I will outline some simple methods for keyword searching. -Josh Berkus ______AGLIO DATABASE SOLUTIONS___________________________ Josh Berkus Complete information technology josh@xxxxxxxxxxxx and data management solutions (415) 565-7293 for law firms, small businesses fax 621-2533 and non-profit organizations.
