      Dear Sir

      I am just starting out and am wanting to learn databases. I want to learn mysql and was wondering if Sqlyog would be helpful to my learning? At this point in time I want to learn the language. Thanks for any information you can give.

      The best place to start learning MySQL would be the docs available at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/

      SQLyog is a front-end tool that makes working with MySQL very easy. SQLyog logs all the queries that it executes to get various informations. You can read these queries to learn SQL and MySQL.

      Probably a search in Amazon on database books will be helpful.

      Let's make a point clear: MySql is a database server and not a language. SQL is the accepted standard language for manipulating relational databases, including, but not limited to MySql. MySql implements a subset of SQL and extends the language with special functions.

      There are several tutorials and book available online that deal with SQL and data modelling in general. SQLyog may help you if you decide to use MySql to learn SQL as it provides an GUI for editing SQL statements (and a lot more, but you won't need most of its features in the near future).
