    Hi everybody! here is my dilemma: I have more than 10 pages of text data which I have to store in the tables, since this information will be the fundation of future applications. the > 10 pages are structured like a list e.g. 1.0 Adsad 1.1 AAfds 1.2 ABfsd 1.2.1 ABCdf 1.3 ACdfd 2.0 Dfdfd 2.1 Dddfd 2.2 Edfdf 2.2.1 EFGdf 2.2.2 RITdf 2.2.2.1 RTFfd 2.2.2.2 YUUHd 2.3 THEdd etc... Most of the time the application interface will look like the example from above where the user has to select different levels which applies to him. How shell I design the tables so that the DB is gonna be normalized and easy to query? It's pretty hard to explain, I just hope, you guys could understand me. Thanks a lot

    Is the data actually just plain old readable text like a book? and you just want the potential user to navigate through some sort of "Tree View" representing a Table of Contents of the "book".

    Or, does the data in the exiting pages need to be parsed and put into some set of normalized tables?

     



    Once you understand the BITs, all the pieces come together
