Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie and keen to learn programming. As I'm an accountant, i wish to use accounting as a project to learn programming.

Can anyone advise which programming language, database container, etc to use for such project?

It can be a single-user or multi-users application.

The main works for this application is to record transactions, generate sales invoices and monitor inventory.

Your help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Most any language would work, but .NET or Java are the first that come to mind for programming languages.

Your answer is too simplified. Kindly give elaboration as I'm not an IT guy.

The choice of database container depends on the volume of data, budget, etc. I like MySQL and Firebird for free, SQL Server for something more commercially oriented. As long as you have something SQL 92 compliant, you're in good shape.
