That depends on what you want to install, doesn't it... ? For instance what do you mean with "create a database"? Really creating a new database instance, or just a table to collect some realted information in? Or "adjust the database with the fields entered by the client". What does this mean? Do you want to alter an table, or just insert some semantic in a table, or do you want them to be able to enable/disable them from a prefix table, or what? > I know a good example is PHPBB2, however I can't seem to disemble their > install structure.

My favorite is "SQL the Standard Handbook" by Stephen Cannan and Gerard Otten.
