Database help - forum, what is best

Well, you can do pretty complex stuff with the query builder. It is quite an extensive library.

However, exactly for those times when you have a particularly complex query, you can just run any query with the:

PHP Code:

$this->db->query('YOUR QUERY HERE'); 


Or if you feel like it, there is nothing stopping you form connecting to your database and running queries just as you would do with native php.

If you have general SQL questions then the 'general help' or 'lounge' might be best, there are some pretty expert people on this forum that might be able to help. However, perhaps your SQL questions would be better suited to a forum for SQL questions such as http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/ or http://forums.mysql.com/

Best wishes,

Paul.


PS I only just realized what RTFM means - lol - very funny.
