Exercise: Creating SQL Server Express tables

1)	Create a new database within your project called Mortgage.
2)	Double-click on this to go into Server Explorer.
3)	Create a new table to hold the types of mortgage.  There are two fields in this table: The MortgageTypeId (the primary key), which numbers the records The MortgageTypename, which gives the name of each type of mortgage
4)	Enter records within this table as follows: Endowment Repayment Pension ISA Never
5)	Create a new view listing the mortgage types alphabetically by name, and save this as VwMortgageType:

6)	Create a table called Person, with the following fields: PersonId (the unique primary key) PersonName (the name of the person) LoanAmount (a decimal field holding the amount of money required) MortgageTypeId (this will hold the type of mortgage)
7)	Enter a few people into your table, with likely mortgages.
