    Hi, I'm learning visual basic and I would like to create a simple multiple-choice quiz with questions saved in a database either stored online (which no one can see/download) or within the application itself. I understand this may involve SQL?

    How would I go about doing this?

    Thanks

    In addition to this, how would I also implement and update feature?

    I don't really understand your request, you want to have the questions stored in a database online and have the application retrieve it from that? If that is the case why keep the questions secret, everyone can find them out just by using it surely

    Rather code it in PHP and MySQL , store the questions , list of answers , correct answers in database , populate a html page using PHP, once user answers them check against correct answer.

    How would one do that? I've not had much experience with PHP - also - the system must be logginable - possible using session ID/cookies. Each user would need to have their own userid and password. Thanks.
