some additional help for ya....
databases consist of tables (also called relations)
tables consist of rows (also called tuples..from tuple relational calc)
rows consist of columns also called attributes
the rules for what to put where can be found in normal forms, if you do it right and use 3rd normal form your database will hold up and be expandable with relative ease.
Do it wrong and you will find yourself having to redo it a lot sonner than you think.
you can google normal forms and SQL and get the info you need...its way beyond the scope of what I can provide here.
