And precisely what skills does this project manager bring to the party? An Oracle expert? An expert in normalization and database theory? If this PM is such an expert ask them to tell you how to do it. Otherwise the requirement is complete and utter nonsense and you are welcome to have this person contact me at the University of Washington where I will gladly spell it out to them.

[Quoted] Right now ... my advice ... stop playing games and tell them the project, as they've asked it to be done, will take a minimum of 6 months and may require a second developer.

After which it will still be a bad idea.
