As a suggestion you could connect Access 2000 and use a wizard.

Is that in project mode Neil? Or do you mean the upgrade wizard?
421, there is some good info here on the site, including a review of SQL 2000 Database Design I wrote a while back - its a good book for a beginner. In general, db design is db design, you might find it easier going though to start out with Access, something designed more for an end user/beginning user.

Database design will be independent of the platform. If you have the design, then the GUI for SQL 7 will make it easy to add tables, keys, etc.
for understanding database design, there are any number of good books out there. I don't really know of any good web sites relating design. If you post some information about what you are trying to achieve, perhaps we will write some articles here.

There are a number of good resources available for database design. Joe Celko's Data & Databases is my personal favorite. There is an excellent list at http://www.dama.org in the resources page http://www.dama.org/resource.htm
Dr. Peter Chen has some of the most referenced materials on database design at his homepage under Paper Online http://www.csc.lsu.edu/~chen/
