| I am new to the SQL enviroment and I am looking for a good course to learn more. I have been in the computer industry for a long time but not exposed to this program. I am looking for some training videos/online/books in order to learn more not just to pass a test for certification. I thought I would check some forums and see if anyone could offer up any suggestions of companies/authors for a person that has computer knowledge but knows nothing about SQL.Thanks in advance for any suggestions. |

It depends on what you're doing in the industry. I've been programming for just shy of 20 years, and didn't have the opportunity to work with a real RDBMS until 5 years ago. (I started in Clipper, and most companies/clients I worked with didn't want to change database formats when changing from DOS to Windows.)Unfortunately, my first real RDBMS was a bad experience; I had to use ORACLE.  |
