4.0 out of 5 stars Good intro to sql for beginners, 20 Oct 2001

By	ldouglas@cableinet.co.uk (uk) - See all my reviews

This was my first book on SQL and I found it very useful. The examples are clearly explained, although a little brief at times. The book is based on the microsoft sql server 2000 product range, whereas other books which I have looked at where a little bit more general. Overall, a good read although you will need another book if you want detailed explanations of the enterprise manager and wizard functionality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent intro to SQL Server 2000, 27 Dec 2005

By	ad_crumenam "ad_crumenam" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft SQL Server 2000 in 21 Days (Paperback)

As the previous reviewer stated, this book is very centered on SQL Server 2000; the title of the book, 'Teach Yourself SQL Server 2000 in 21 Days' is kind of obvious in that respect. This book is not a SQL tutorial; it focuses mainly on aspects of installation, usage, and database administration as they pertain to SQL Server 2000. If you are looking for a SQL language tutorial, this book is probably more than you need though it does contain an excellent but brief SQL tutorial.

As for teaching SQL Server 2000, this book does so superbly. It doesn't assume that you're a programmer or that you know much about databases but it does assume prior experience with computing. I purchased a copy nearly five years ago when I was just getting started with SQL Server and this book didn't leave my side for weeks. By the time I finished, I had a SQL server up and running with reliable backups and easy admin tasks, and was using it for a practical purpose. The sections on using XML with SQL Server were a little thin, but the information has probably been updated in a subsequent version between 2001 and now. Despite the thinness on this subject, I had my SQL server producing data in a usable XML format and a website calling a stored procedure that used XML.

I highly recommend this book if you're interested in the administrative aspects of running a database. It may also be useful for developers who want to know more about database administration. If all you need is to learn the SQL language for simple queries, this book is overkill; and if you want to know about Oracle or MySQL, this is obviously not the book for you!
