 * Ok so I build a new WordPress site and I want to store data from the site in 
   a database running SQL Web 2012. How in the world would I get that done? This
   is for a project that I am working on for school where I need to use a cloud 
   server running Windows Server 2012 with SQL Web 2012. I though building a website
   would be a good option. Thanks for your help.

 * WordPress uses specific PHP and SQL commands and scripts to access and write
