[support] Databases

[Tony]

I could probably do it a different way as far as the module is concerned
but I just wanted to practice basic DB ops.
Another topic of discussion would be "when do I need to write code to
access the DB"? Not having had too much experience in that area I may be
posing a superfluous question.
