Hello there,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a newsgroup for posting schema design
questions?

Is it inappropriate to post design questions here? (Not really specific to
sql server design)

Thank you kindly
John Sheppard

Unfortunately newsgroups are not a good place to do database design. An
online forum can't really support the kind of in-depth analysis that is
necessary to do design properly. If you are looking for advice on design
principles then try comp.databases.theory
