Hello everyone

I am new to this forum and also new to the Java Programming and I need help. I have a project to make in Java and any database software, probably Access and here is the problem:
I have to make a program that will generate automaticaly database of size X MB with option for the user to choose how many collumns he wants. So the problem for this is that I can not find any good articles on the net which gives description for this kind of software, because this is my desertation so the main think what am I looking for now is some software that does allmost the same job in order to write my literature review on this problem. So If anyone there can help me please reply to this topic or you can find me on my ICQ. I realy appreciate your help, and I know that maybe this is not the place for this kind of questions but maybe somebody will have some information about this. Later on when I will start with the program, I mean to start writting the program, I will need help also but I know that then it will be the perfect place to ask here. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me.

I'm not sure what you mean by 'create a database of size X Mb'. Sure you can create a database via JDBC using SQL commands (e.g. "CREATE DATABASE xxx;") as long as you can connect to the database server and have the appropriate permissions, but it doesn't really make sense to talk about the size of the database per se - the database server itself handles those issues, from the client point of view you deal with concepts like tables not how the database server physically represents the database.

What you are essentially looking to emulate is a program like MySQL control centre or TOAD. But everything you will want to do can be done via JDBC.
