After creating the database schema, use Insert, Update, and Delete commands to populate the tables with the following information. Notice that the values for the primary key columns (ClassId in the Classes table, AdvisorId in the Advisors table and StudentId in the Students table) are not listed. It is assumed that they will be “Identity” or “Auto-increment” columns and the DBMS will determine the proper identity value when the row is inserted.
You may have to either modify your original data types for some of your table columns or modify the values below to fit your data types. For example, if you defined your gender column to be a 1-character column, you will need to use the values M or F instead of Male and Female. The IsActive column is another column that may require different values, depending on the type of DBMS used. Click the following links for video instructions:
When inserting the advisor’s records, separate first and lastname as they are separate fields in the table schema.
