What should be included in a database spec?

I'm going to be working on a database project, and all I know about it is that it will require a user interface. I know that I will have to create a spec for this work, but can someone tell me what sort of things should appear on a database spec?

Thanks for the link. I'll start with that for now. The project is on hold, so I haven't had the chance to talk to this potential client.
