Database in java??

I am an extreme begginer(1-3 days) with experience in C++, i am porting an
app from Vb to java applet, im using forte as my ide(msJ++ was a big waste
of money) THe thing is, the vb app uses a database as its core,(IT is an
association learning program, Its just flash cards), i have made the interface,
But no matter where i look, i cannot find a single piece of information regarding
anything about databases in java!!!, I shure dont want to go to my C++ option
of Serializing listboxes. wuz too hard in C++, dont wanna think about it
in java.

Find a book on (like 'Beginning Java 2' from WROX Chapters 18 & 19) or search
the web for JDBC. For advanced functionality you might want to look into
EJB's but that may be more than you need.
