If it is a pirated copy contact MS with the details of the supplier and they will give you a copy for £1 so i heard a while ago. Then they wll sue the retailer for the original cost and they will prob goto prison

I realise that there are hundreds of different flavours of linux, and deciding which one can be a nightmare. I personally hate Ubuntu which alot of people will love, personall i would go for Fedora. If you wanna read about most of the distros available goto Distrowatch as it will tell you about most available. This site is one of the ultimate resources on disrtos. The main ones to try as a newbie are Meppis (don't have to install - run as a live CD and install if you want from the same CD) Ubuntu (These will send you the CD's free of charge just wait for about a month) Fedora - 4CD download which takes a while but has a lot of stuff including drivers included Suse (not totally free - i think it is just the live cd which is free) Madriva (mandrake as it used to be know) again 4 cd download but alot of drivers I would advise newbies to steer clear of most others until they know what there doing and then experiment until you find the system you love Linux will let you customise EVERYTHING unlike windows which let you do nothing. Be prepaired for some larning with Linux and to reinstall it a few times when you *BLEEP* up

That site will cover most aspects of design including php PHP Tutorials That link should take you straight to the PHP section Good luck

I am looking for a program to create SQL databases through a GUI to simplify it, the only things i can seem to find are command prompt things and i can't work with them. I like MS access and would like something similar to that if possible. I am working with windows at the moment can anyone recommend a program i can use (preferably free)Many thanks
