Chapter 18: Planning Your System

Overview

The first step in good application design is having a plan. Although improvisation along the way is sometimes a good thing, it's best to start with a solid foundation and a series of goals. The next several chapters will help you create a simple contact- management system—basically, an online address book. In this chapter, you learn how to:

  • Define administrative tasks and create a menu

  • Modify the table-creation script sequence to account for primary keys and auto-incrementing fields

  • Define and create the my_contacts table
