Hi,
I'm new to SQL but we want to turn some of our flat files into
SQL databases. The flat file is the result of a survey (think of
a test) where there are some multiple choice questions, and
a bunch of "T/F" questions. The T/F questions are just checked
boxes, which we can think of as keywords that a person chooses.
The question is, can we put this into a SQL database just as a
flat file, ie as one table, with one column per question, or should
we break it into several tables, for instance with a table of
the "keywords" (the boxes that can be checked). Is there any
problem on a typical Linux box with running PostgreSql database
with one table of 120 columns?
Thanks,
J.
