Hi
 
I'm a new user to Postgresql.
 
I've installed it as an application in Windows. My intent is to gain experience in using sql to build a database.
 
I'm having problems understanding how to begin.
 
When I start the database is there any indicator that it is actually running?
 
Do I need to add a server to access the database?
 
If so, what properties do I enter into the add server interface to add a server? Everything I've tried so far has been rejected.
