| HiI'm looking for a book to get me started with learning SQL.Am thinking of learning using MS SQL Server 2008 as its the most recent MS release (unless there's a reason why 2005 would be better)Are there any good books out there that start from the perspective of someone with no previous SQL experiance? Will also be learning to code C# & think a more general SQL foundation would benefit me.Any pointers would be appreciated - I've seen a few on Amazon but its always better to have peoples opinion.Thanks in advance,Alex. |
