As the others suggest one of the first things to do is to define your database. You need to define what tables you need and what fields you need in each table. It is not easy to explain how to decide what tables you need; it would help if you buy a book or some books that explain all that. A good beginner book that includes databases would help. Something you can do without a book is to look at the articles in this site about database programming. I suggest reading my article Database Table Update in a DataGridView without Writing Code .

Hi I think you have concentrate on designing part first as what items you want to display like Stock. Stockbooked,Stock Left and Quantity on the webpage. Then design the database based on the objects available .It's a good programming to display required objects only on the screen what you need from the database. [SPAM REMOVED]

I'd suggest using SQL if you want to store your database on a server, SQL Compact Edition or SQLite if you're only interested in storing the database on the local drive that the app will be running on. Please remember to mark as answer if you found this helpful.
