Beginning T-SQL 2008

Beginning T-SQL 2008 by Kathi Kellenberger introduces readers to the single, most fundamental tool that they’ll need in working with SQL Server 2008: T-SQL. Also known as Transact-SQL, T-SQL is the language through which one creates and manages a database. It is the language for getting data into and out of the database. Proficiency in T-SQL is especially essential for reporting, such as in conjunction with Reporting Services. Beginning T-SQL 2008 will have broad appeal across the entire population of SQL Server users, and the book stands at the beginning of Apress’s mainline roadmap for SQL Server.
