id ont have the book with me now so i dont remember the title. but it's
called SQL programming i think, it's a red book with yellow text in the
front, and a picture of the guy in front (gray), in his forties or late
thirties. good book that covers T-SQL, and lots of join stuff
-Original
The best book that I have found that covers complex queries is "SQL Queries
for Mere Mortals" by Hernandez Viescas. It is very clearly put together
and comes with sample databases for MS Access, MS SQL Server and Oracle.

does the Ben Forta book sql in 10 minutes come with evaluation
software for
a single user machine and does it work on a win 98 environment
I would only be using it to develop the sql database and then use the cf
hosting service to host the sql server etc
your comments please
No...
What makes a SQL book good is subjective: it depends on what you want to do
with SQL, which vendor's SQL implementation you are using, and what skill
level you are at.
Despite the fact that SQL is a "standard," you'll want to get yourself a
book that discusses your vendor specific flavor of SQL
