I suggest that you have a look to the SQL examples as part of Qt distrbutions. Since they are typically ready for direct use, you can start with them and adapt to examples, if you still have the desire to do so.

They are too advanced, not good for a beginner of that. But thanks. By the way, it doesn't show what template/classes are to be used.@tomy
You can just use a default widget GUI project.
The samples are just fragments. Not complete samples. Just shows how to hook
up model to a view.
To learn more, read docs for each classQListView(this);
QStringListModel(this);
QSqlDatabase db
QSqlTableModel(this); -

Hi
I can highly recommend
http://sqlitebrowser.org/
for looking into the db, running sql on it and learn sqlite.@mrjj
It seems great but I don't want to go into the details to the DB world. It seems also advanced. I wanted to have a simple db program, or better to say, I just want to practice the example of the book. I'm not interested in db, at east, for now. And since it's part of that book I wanted that.
Now if possible please tell me the kind of project for the book's example. Would Qt Widgets Applications be right to use for that.By the way, I will read the link properly. I may need it for the program I'm involving it (spreadsheet).

@tomy said in A database app:
a simple db program
Well unless you know what a table is, SQL and a little bit of db structure, its not going to be fun.
If you dont want to learn about DB, there is no reason to read about Qt DB classes.
They help you do DB stuff and if you skip that part, it best just to skip it all. -

I don't want to say I don't like to learn DB, because I will certainly need it in near/far future. what I say is "at this stage", or for this time.
first I need to learn how to run the example (I pointed to at my first post of this thread) and follow the book and some time latter start reading about DB. I'm sure those links offered here are very useful. -

Also , those samples are incomplete as it seems to be from some other part.
the variables are not defined there, only shown so there will be extra work to make it run
unless there is the rest of it. -
@tomy Please don't forget to mark your post as "Solved" if you're done with the DB topic...
