we are trying to build warehouse in our company its very small database but still.
we have come to a point where we are able to pull reports from the database that we have created as OLTP which is truncated and reloading everyday .
Now we have to stop doing that and just update the database and check for the changes in the existing data.
Can anyone suggest ETL book/webcast/weblinks that could help me.

I just started at a client's site and have found that the Books On Line has been removed (all other items are there in the program group instead of BOL). Is there a site at microsoft that mimicks BOL? (sybase has a 'sybooks on the web' which mimicks their 'Sybooks' product documentation.
Can anyone recommend books on SQL Server 7.0 Data Transformation Services? Looking to find info on importing data from a Sybase server to SQL server (need good examples). Thanks.
How do you use BOL? I've heard time again that there is much info in BOL but when i look at it it seems too brief and not detailed. I find it hard to find what i'm looking for anyway. How do you use it?

Could someone explain the difference between these 2 books besides the fact that one is geared towards the express edition. The SQL Programming book sounds more thorough than the Express Edition book.

Can anybody suggest a couple of good books to use to prepare for the SQL Data Warehousing exam (70-019)? I'm starting to get ready for that exam to complete my MCDBA and was wondering if anybody had any good recommendations or those to stay away from.
Thanks for any help that you can provide in this matter.
Sorry if this has been posted before, but I performed a search on the archives and didn't find anything !
I have just been turned over a SQL 6.5 SP3 / NT 4.0 SP3 server that has several SQL errors in the event log. I need to find a good book to read/scan, so I can get up to speed on SQL.
Can anyone guide me to a place where I can download some Tutorials / Books (Not that new) covering Microsoft SQL 2000 essentials ? I tried to find here, but artices are too advanced for me.. I need something that covers the Basic and that could be used as a small reference/guide while I am learing...
I have a couple of years of light experience with SQL server. I'd like to start studying to take the SQL 2000 exams. I have a good test environment set up and I'm reading through the Books Online. Can anyone recommend a book or books that might be helpful for me? My end goal here is to pass the test in the near future, but I want to really learn SQL rather than just learn to pass the test.
