My SQL/ASP Membership Database Website

I have the code already for a membership site. What I don't have yet is the ability to setup a simple database that can be searched and viewed by members who are logged in. I run a martial arts leadership program called the National Leadership Team. Students need to be able to login (already taken care of with an asp membership script which I can make available if you need) and "Open" a new community project to be completed. They will have a few questions to answer when "Opening" a project. After they take action and complete the project, they will press a button "Complete My Project". The project will be 'filed away' under their name and date will be 'stamped'. Also, when they sign up, they will be signing up under their instructor (a group). The instructor needs to have access to all of his students projects from his account. He needs to be able to see what projects are open and which ones have been completed. All users need to be able to SEARCH the database for project ideas. There's really nothing complicated at all with the site, the problem is that I just know enough code to get me by, not enough to create a workable database that can run with my ASP membership software. Please Help. I can provide any additional info that you may need.
