Turley (senior consultant, database solutions developer) and Wood (manager and developer, database solutions, trainer) have written an introduction to Transact-SQL, Microsoft Corporation's implementation of the Structured Query Language. The authors explore and explain both the SQL Server 2000 and the newer features of SQL 2005. Topics include: how Transact-SQL provides the means to develop tools for managing hundreds of databases, programming techniques that use views and stored procedures, and optimizing query performance. The manual is intended for database developers and administrators who have not yet worked with Transact-SQL. Explanations and instructions are clear and concise and supported with screen captures.
