Books on T-SQL
Hi Can anyone suggest me a good book on T-SQL for SQL Server 2005? I preferably need both a Hardcopy and a softcopy (any link which covers in depth T-SQL for YUKON will do). Same for Hardcopy also.
Thanks in Advance
Shaun
I haven't actually read it, but the O'Reilly books are generally very good, and they have released on one SQL 2005:http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/progsqlsvr/
Also, Microsoft has some good books and courses online:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/sql/learning/default.aspx
HTH|||
For me Books OL is enough for all T-SQL questions and syntax issues.
I was looking for some good book for 2k5 but not many books are out yet.
|||? I don't think any are out yet. Itzik Ben-Gan and a couple of others have two books coming out in a few months, from Microsoft Press (part of the "Inside SQL Server" series). You might have to make due with BOL until that one is released. -- Adam MachanicPro SQL Server 2005, available nowhttp://www..apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=457-- <Shaun Michael@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:3049dd63-4c3c-42a8-9e31-57ee97c32f4e@.discussions.microsoft.com...

The only official documentation is Books Online. I don't recommend the book in my signature because the coverage of T-SQL isn't all that deep -- we covered the new features only. Aside from the four books targetted at the beta editions (Beauchemin et al, Otey, DeBetta, and Scalability Experts), all of the other books currently on the market are targetted at RTM, as far as I'm aware. -- Adam MachanicPro SQL Server 2005, available nowhttp://www..apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=457-- <Shughes@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:879be8bc-3533-4242-a45d-fc56a35ec105@.discussions.microsoft.com...I've seen some books out, including the one in the link above.

Books on SSAS 2005....
Hi,
I will be very happy if anyone can suggest me a very good book (preferably microsoft press book) on SQL Server Analysis Services 2005 (SSAS 2005). I mean hard copy. I want to know the in and out of SSAS 2005......so i will be thankful if im suggested some good book on it.
Expecting your reply soon!!!!!
TIA,
Shaun Michael
Hi Shaun,
I'm currently reading the following books and I think they are pretty good.
- Applied Microsoft Analysis Services 2005
- Delivering Business Intelligence with Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Those books cover the whole Microsoft BI Platform (SQL,SSAS,SSIS and RS) and not only SSAS.
HTH,
Eric
|||Hi Shaun,
Chris Webb has compiled a list of AS 2005-related books on his blog - some of which may not yet be available:

|||I think these books sound good.
Thanks a lot Eric & Deepak.
sqlBooks on SQL Server 2005
Hello!
Could anyone recommend a good book on SQL Server 2005?
Thanks,
IgorI can recommend "Pro SQL Server 2005" -- I think it's pretty good, but I'm
biased, having written part of it :-)
Here is a link for the book on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1590594770/qid=1135995603/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-3950975-7605458?n=507846&s=books&v=glance
You can also see a sample chapter if you click the link in my signature.
Other than that, there are not many books available yet. There are three or
four books written for the beta releases--I do not recommend those, as they
are currently somewhat outdated. I believe all of them will be coming out
with new editions in the coming months. As far as I'm aware, the only other
book available right now targetted at RTM is William Stanek's "Pocket
Consultant":
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0735621071/qid=1135995698/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/103-3950975-7605458?n=507846&s=books&v=glance
I have not yet had a chance to check that out, so I can't comment on its
quality.

I second that. I recently read it to get me up to speed on those things I didn't focus on during
beta. It is a fairly quick way to get enough information about the new stuff, and you can then more
easily jump into those topics you need, as the need arises.

Books on SQL Server 2005
Hello!
Could anyone recommend a good book on SQL Server 2005?
Thanks,
IgorI can recommend "Pro SQL Server 2005" -- I think it's pretty good, but I'm
biased, having written part of it :-)
Here is a link for the book on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/15...=books&v=glance
You can also see a sample chapter if you click the link in my signature.
Other than that, there are not many books available yet. There are three or
four books written for the beta releases--I do not recommend those, as they
are currently somewhat outdated. I believe all of them will be coming out
with new editions in the coming months. As far as I'm aware, the only other
book available right now targetted at RTM is William Stanek's "Pocket
Consultant":
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/07...=books&v=glance
I have not yet had a chance to check that out, so I can't comment on its
quality.

I second that. I recently read it to get me up to speed on those things I di
dn't focus on during
beta. It is a fairly quick way to get enough information about the new stuff
, and you can then more
easily jump into those topics you need, as the need arises.

Books on Integration Service
Hi,
I am new to integration service. Could anyone recommend a book on this area?
Thanks,
SQLIS.com has a list of SSIS books (http://www.sqlis.com/800.aspx)
There aren't a lot of choices. Both books (Professional SQL Server 2005 Integration Services and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services) are good. The Professional book might be easier to start with.
|||Has anyone read the Expert SQL 2005 Integration Services (Programmer to Programmer) yet? If so, is it any good... Does it teach you anything beyond what you would pick up in the Haselden or Professional books?
What about the Hands-On SQL 2005 Integration Services book? This looks more like a beginners book (which would be good to introduce new team members to SSIS) than anything, but is it any good?

Books on Hierarchies
Hello All,
I would like learn Hierarchies in "SQL". I do have the Transact-SQL Cookbook
by Jonathan Gennick.
Are there any other book that talks about this topic that I should read.
Also, if anyone can point to some
links that would be great as well.

Wrong. I am a pussy cat in person. I have a deliberately adversarial
newsgroup personality. After ten or so years, you get tired whining
"do my homework/job for me", or "give me a kludge so I can kill
people" postings.
The first group of whiners is why Chris Date does not answer email
address. I turn them into their schools and have them expelled for
academic cheating (2 and maybe 3 so far)
The second group is more of a problem. In 2004, it was kid who threw
out 1NF on a medical supply system for African relief. He was more
bothered by the fact that I was rude to him than that his incompetent
was killing children in a war zone.

Well that's fine, but some people are coming on here to develop and learn
from other people, your style puts people off. You don't come across as a
friendly and helpful character. (and presumably you must be at heart if you
like looking into people's sql problems and solving them for free) Oh I
dunno, maybe I'm too patient with people myself... anyway self perception
analysis is a bit off topic so I'll shut up.sql

Please give the Microsoft suggested book material list for learning SSIS

Also has accompanying website www.sqlreportingservices.net, where you can see (I think!) the first two chapters of the book, to get a flavour for it.
Check it out!

Books
Looking for suggestions on some good books for Reporting Services that will
get me up to speed on its functionality. A book with a good index, good for
beginners, good reference book; that will hopefully get me up to speed pretty
quickly on utilizing Reporting Services.
Thanks in advance for your help.
wnfisbawnfisba,
I bought Wrox's Prof SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services book a month ago,
and I was disappointed.
I was very disappointed when I tried to learn about the ReportViewer
control. There were only a few pages that dealt with it, and it really didn't
get into the good, stuff.
I wanted to use the control on remote servers, and it didn't explain the
issues on setting the credentials.
I would have re-titled this book - - Beginner SQL Server Report Server, for
it really only touches high level topics regarding the SSRS 2005. However, if
you want a lesson in developing WinForm application, this is your book.

As SQL server covers such a large area I don't think there is one single
books that you can purchase the covers everything. I usually suggest that yo
u
approach your employer and ask them to start a library so that the company
has a resource everyone can dip into.

Book suggestions on T-SQL
Hi All,
I am new to SQL Server but have been doing database programming since last 3 years. I recently attended MOC (Microsfot Official Curriculum) training on SQL Server and have started to use at my company. I am comfortable with SQL but want to dig deeper into T-SQL side. I searched on the Internet but not many good books available in that either they are ranked very low or are very old i.e. written around 1999/2000 or covers SQL Server 2000 as a whole. Can anybody suggest me any T-SQL book which was written recently and focuses purely or majorly on T-SQL?
Thanks to all for your time and advice in advance.
Regards:
PrathmeshKen Henderson. Some of the stuff is from the Guru's Guide to Transact SQL is a little dated but you will learn a lot. He has 2 books after that one I have been meaning to get to that are a little more up to date and I have heard are quite excellant.|||http://www.sqlteam.com/store.asp|||Thanks guys for the suggestions. Ken Henderson's books
1. Guru's Guide to T-SQL
2. Guru's guide to Stored Procedures, XML, HTML
seem to be good. Book 2 is slightly newer than book 1, but seem to have good material coverage. I also went through amazon reviews and TOC and overall the book seems good. As Thrasymachus pointed out, Book 1 is a bit out of date, but seems to be a good starting point.
Once again, thanks for your tips.

Book suggestions for studying for MCDBA
Hi All,
I'm about to begin studying for the MCDBA certification and I'm
wondering what books people would recommend?
The following gets a good review, so I'm planning on purchasing it:
MCSA/MCSE/MCDBA Self-Paced Training Kit: Microsoft SQL Server 2000
System Administration, 70-228, Second Edition
However, I'd like to also go through a second book as well, just to
make sure my coverage is as complete as possible, and I'm wondering if
anyone has any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance,
MurrayHi
There are two things that you need to look at when doing these exams,
knowledge and exam technique. In general books that are for specifically for
an examination tend to be more focussed on exam technique and I would
personally would not get a second book for that! There are also websites
that can take you through sample exams as well as those found in the book.
For general knowledge, apart from hands on day to day use, you should study
books online and all the places etc listed at

Book Suggestions
I would like to know if anyone has a suggestion of a book for biginners.
Reporting Services seems to be a very difficult thing to get informaion on.
The only thing that has been remotly helpful has been information from people
more expreianced. I would like book for reference. I ordered the book
"Hitchhiker's Guide to SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services". Is this one
going to be helpful or should I find another one too?The "Hitchhiker's Guide to SQL Server 200 Reporting Services" is an
excellent book.
You may also want to buy "SQL Server Reporting Services" by Wrox. Another
excellent book.
These 2 books would make a excellent edition to your book reference library.

I would also recommend the Hitchhiker's Guide.
If, as you say, you are green then the Microsoft Step by Step book
might be the easiest first book.
Hitchhiker's Guide will give you depth. Another good RS2000 book is
Teo Lachev's book from Manning.
The Wrox RS2000 book is good too.

Sometime during the last month.
I can't now recall if they are RS2000 or RS2005 webcasts.
Go to http://www.microsoft.com/events and then search the on-demand

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
