Good SQL Book?

Jul 20, 2005

hello, for a new job i might have to learn SQL. i've never
worked with databases or SQL, so i'll need to learn. can
anybody advice me on what would be a good book to learn
from? i'm quite an experienced programmer, so it doesn't
have to be a dummies guide, and preferably not a bulky book
like the "SQL bible" or something.

oh, one of my 'favourite' computer books of all times is
"thinking in Java" by bruce eckel, to give you an idea.

Good SQL Book

May 30, 2007

hello
 i am just starting to learn sql and know the basics, but now im looking for a good book to learn some more. A book that covers stored procedure would be very useful. If possible a book with q and a would be very good because i feel this tests if u understand what was just explaned. but if there is a good book without this it is ok. All sugestions welcome

Need A Good Book...

Apr 27, 2004

I've been a SQL Server dba for 5 or 6 years now. With the upcoming release (eventually, I'm sure) of Yukon/SQL2005, I've read that it's important for DBA's to pick up one of the .NET languages - I've figured, I'll try to learn VB.NET - I've had a little exposure to it, and can usually figure out what's going on in VB code I've read - however, I seriously doubt I could write anything in it from scratch - I want to learn it in a bad way - can you all recommend any self-paced books that will walk me thru it? I've never had any formal training with it, don't know a class from a DLL....Thanks in advance for your help!!

Web Developer Looking For Good SQL Book

Jan 6, 2007

I'm looking to buy a book about SQL, T-SQL, stored procedures, etc. I'm a web developer, so I don't need a book for a SQL Server administrator. I need a book that tells me what I as a developer need to know about SQL. I'm currently using Visual Studio, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET 2.0, and VB.NET (and fairly new to all of those) if that makes any difference. The bulk of my web developing experience has been with PHP and MySQL so this is new territory for me. I hope all that makes sense. I would appreciate any suggestions for such a book.
Thanks!
-Mathminded
p.s. I bought a bunch of Wrox books and haven't had them long enough to decide if I like them: "Professional ASP.NET 2.0", "Professional ASP.NET 2.0 Security, Membership, and Role Management", "ASP.NET 2.0 Website Programming", and "Visual Basic 2005". I thought I'd check with the experts before investing in another book. :-)

For those of us struggling with DTS, you've probably all seen
Professional SQL Server 2000 DTS
Mark Chaffin, Brian Knight, and Todd Robinson
WROX
ISBN 1-861004-41-9

This is brand new:
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS
Timothy Peterson
SAMS
ISBN 0-672-32011-8

I have both and they're both worth owning.

I also just found a reference to the following, but I haven't seen it so I count vouch for it. (I also wonder why I haven't stumbled across it previously...)
Professional SQL Server 7.0 Development Using SQL-DMO, SQL-NA and DTS
Frank Miller & Rachelle Reese
