books needed
For my project, I need to get familiar with sqlserver2005 in a few
days.But I do not have any books or links, so please provide any links
or books to learn about sqlserver205.
Thanks in advance,
DevrajHi
SQL Server 2005 is a such a large area that there is probably no single book
that will tell you everything. As you have a short timescale you will have t
o
decide how/what you are going to limit yourself to. If you just want a
product overview then check out the SQL Server website at
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/default.mspx. Books online is also a very good
place to start especially if you are familiar with previous versions of SQL
Server. If you want an overview of how to administer SQL Server 2005 then yo
u
may want to look at Microsoft? SQL Server? 2005 Administrator's Pocket
Consultant
http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/6794.asp if you wish to purchase
other books you may want to browse Amazon or Barnes and Nobel and check out
the sample chapters.

Hi Devraj
Do you already have experience with SQL Server 2000? If so, then this
message I just sent to someone else will also apply to you.

Hi Jeremy,
I've recently picked up Pro SQL Server 2005 by Thomas Rizzo and a bunch
of others. I've chosen it because it's focus is almost exclusively on
the changes between 2000 and 2005. I didn't want to clutter my bookshelf
with yet another book explaining SELECT and WHERE but I did want to read
about the new features - and this book provided exactly what I wanted. I
must admit that the chapters on XML didn't quite appeal to me, but all
the chhapters before that (on installation, management, T-SQL
enhancements, and .Net integration) were great. I have yet to read the
remaining chapters (on Reporting Services, Analysis Services, security,
Service Broker, automation and monitoring, Integration Services,
Mirroring, and Notification Services).
Another great resource are Microsoft's E-Learning upgrade courses 2936
up to 2944. These all focus on changes between 2000 and 2005. And the
best part is: until November 1, 2006, they are free!

Books for Yokun
I am completely familiar with DTS and database programming and I'd like to
start learning about Yokun version .Which books do you suggest for Analysis
services and SSIS and Sql server 2005?
ThanksFor AS, you should refer to Chris Webb's list, here:
http://spaces.msn.com/members/cwebbbi/Blog/cns!1pi7ETChsJ1un_2s41jm9Iyg!322.

For SSIS, I don't think there are any books out yet, but I know that Kirk
Haselden is working on one for release early next year. You'll want to
watch for that one. He's the dev lead on the SSIS team so he knows a thing
or two about the product :)
Finally, for general SQL Server 2005 topics, I would appreciate it if you
would look at the link in my signature!

Book Suggestion?
Can anyone recommend good books for learning Reporting Services? Assume the reader is familiar with Crystal Reports and other reporting environments, but has no experience with SQL Server 2005 and very little with Visual Studio 2005.
TryMicrosoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services step by step

Book on SQL Server 2000
Hi,
I have been using SQL Server 2000 for sometime now but I am still not very familiar with some of the functionalities.
Just wondering if anyone can recommend me some "must have" SQL Server 2000 reference books.
Thank you.
Danny.
Check for any of Ken Hendersons' books.|||Another good book is the SQL Server 2000 Bible by Paul Nielsen.
And for TSQL, any book by Itzik Ben-Gan.
|||Thank you for your replies.
Just wondering of anyone has any access to the TOC of "The Guru's Guide to SQL Server Architecture (Paperback) by Ken Henderson"?
Thanks
|||Amazon almost always has that information available.
