I'm about to create a new application - somewhat like a CRM. I'm thinking it would be best to diagram out all the tables/fields before I begin...but not sure what is the best way to do so? Are there tools in VS? MSSMS? Something else? I want to quickly and thoroughly create the database the application will use for its back-end.

This http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171971%28VS.80%29.aspx article explains pretty well how to create database diagrams using Microsoft SQL Management Studio. You can download SQLMS here: http://www.microsoft.com/express/Database/
The nice thing about this approach is that your diagram is also your database so you don't have to create the diagram and then create the database, you can get them both done at the same time.

I quite like to use Microsoft Visio to map this sort of stuff out.
Or even better - a wipeboard!

You can do this inside Visual Studio. Just set up a Database and in the Server Explorer, create a new diagram. The way to do this differs in different VS Versions.
VS 2005
Another approach would be to use the Management Studio Express
You can get this one here.

Although it is called Razor Pages for a reason I'm just wondering if it is possible to use a different view engine, say Spark Engine or any other View Engine you can think of.
I also wonder the same thing for Blazor.
Edit: This question was previously closed because it was thought that I was looking for recommendations. I'm not looking for recommendations, I want to learn if it is possible to change the view engine of a Razor Pages project.
There is a microsoft project that changes the rendering engine to use blazor for native platform apps.
It is in very early stage, but shows the possibilities.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile-blazor-bindings/
I believe it’s completly possible, but very complicated, considering that you are going to need rewrite all the bindings and connections that blazor offers.

I am looking for a quick way to create a web application that accesses an SQL server database and displays tables of choice, enabling me to create new entries in those tables.
Any built in frameworks in Visual Studio 2017 that can be used? Or other easy to use ones?
Thanks
Probably the most simple way to create website that performs simple CRUD maintenance on database tables is to use MVC scaffolding, which will generate simple screens and code to work with data. There's a nice "how to" blog entry at https://www.red-gate.com/simple-talk/dotnet/asp-net/using-scaffolding-to-create-mvc-applications-with-visual-studio/

Is it possible to download the entire Microsoft Academic Graph? On this page they give a link but there are no download options there.
I know I can use API and I like it, but I am still curious about a download option.
I believe you can find the latest data directly in zenodo at: https://zenodo.org/record/2628216
https://academicgraph.blob.core.windows.net/graph/index.html
it's apparently not possible anymore via single dump, you'll need an Azure subscription and go through the Cognitive Services API
The Microsoft Academic Graph is available for free from Microsoft, but you'll need an Azure subscription (you can get one for free).
Please see documentation for the service at:

I have been given the task of porting an Access application to Eclipse RCP/RAP. The databases will remain unchanged, just the front-end will be redeveloped.
Having spent some away from eclipse development, I'm wondering what kind of support is available for data-binding to databases. What about controls such as DataGrid (edit/insert/delete rows), multi-line list items and so on?
What frameworks are there? Which ones are still being actively developed?
Thanks!
I'm not aware of any possibility to bind widgets directly to a database. You'll need to build a Java representation of your database models. Depending on the size of your project, Hibernate or EclipseLink will be preferable to JDBC.
JFace provides data binding that is easy to include into an RCP application. And with Grid and NatTable, there are two SWT implementations of advanced tables available, but I don't know how well they are supported by JFace data binding. Check the nebula project for other advanced widgets.
Eclipse Riena also provides advanced data binding (by conveniently wrapping JFace), but this is only one of many features. There is an experimental implementation that allows to run Riena applications on RAP.

I am more familiar with the Microsoft stack and I have some knowledge with ASP.NET and SQL.
What is the best open source platform to learn and create a dynamic website with, focusing on the back end?
PHP for the website development
MySQL (or PostgreSQL) for the database backend.
All are open source.
There is no such thing as the "best open source". There are many good ones that'll suit different programming styles and personalities.
Some of the more popular couple of open source languages for web development today are:
PHP
Ruby
Python
Some of the more popular couple of open source databases are:
PostgreSQL
MySQL
As they're free, give them a spin and see what you prefer.
Try to start with the dasBlog. you can see more information about this project and a lot more here and videos here
The two most popular open source webapp platforms at the moment are Rails and Django. They are both awesome, and a joy to work with.
