Final Review
A great reference on SQL Server 2000 is this book as it is loaded
with excellent code examples. This book includes full coverage
of Transact-SQLs DDL, and DML as well as ADO, DAO, and RDO.
You will learn to build scaleable SQL Server 2000 Web solutions
and handle database management, backup, recovery, and security.
Well, you'd say so what? I am a developer and no administrator.
But need to know about these tasks.
SQL Server 2000 Developer's Guide explains how to access and manipulate
data using Transact-SQL, build powerful Windows applications with
ADO, DAO, and RDO, and develop integrated, cross-platform Web applications
with ASP and XML. You will also get details on SQL Server 2000
management, administration, and security issues.
Do not forget to make use of the bonus CD-ROM which contains ready-to-run
code and an evaluation edition of SQL Server 2000.
But let us look into the authors background:
Michael Otey (Portland, OR) is a Senior Technical Editor of SQL Server
Magazine and Windows NT Windows Magazine.
He is also the presient of TECA, a consulting and software development
company.
Paul Conte (Eugene, OR) is an established database expert and author
of many books. He is also the president of Picante Software.
Plan and implement enterprise-wide security, backup, and restore procedures
is one side of your possible tasks. To build data-driven Web applications
with Active Server Pages may be a different task if you are aand ASP
Developer at the same time.
But where does his help you ?
It shows you how to write stored procedures, triggers, and functions.
These must increase application functionality and simplify development.
