Well, werutz, not sure what you want.

I would suggest to read the mysql official documentation, it comes with
so much useful things, just google for it.

Or try one of the SQL pro blogs, for example
SQL resources (http://sql-datenbank.net).

Some topics are for instance:

microsoft access and sql query for oracle (http://sql-datenbank.net/Sql/blog/Microsoft-access-and-sql-query-for-oracle.html)

Hope, I could help you.

Not sure exactly what you are looking for but if it is SQL and PHP then have a look at this site.

http://www.php-mysql-tutorial.com/

It covers mySQL and PHP.

Depends a lot on your current level.

Many people find asktom.oracle.com to be invaluable. Tom's 2 books he released are also considered amazing.

Perhaps look into Oracle training classes, too.

mysql, as it is free. If you hate it you wont have lost much. The latest versions have support for the cool stuff like transactions and as i remeber subselects etc.

You can spend a fortune on classes, get a decent book or just try and make something, use a nice easy interface like phpmyadmin.

A great place to start is in the optimiastion, like indexes and good procatice, like naming conventions and good normalisation.

There are lots of tutorials out there
