The only book I've read that I thought was superb was "The Hitchikers guide to VB and SQL Server". This is only really any good if he is using VB to access SQL although it does explain the difference between methods of data access very well (ADO, ODBC, OLEDB, RDO, etc....) IF he is using CF to access SQL then I wouldn't bother buying it -----Original Message----- From: Larry W.

He doesn't need to learn SQL or relational databases. He just is looking for the book, or set of books, best for programming, design, and administration of a Microsoft SQL Server environment (Windows NT at least...). Any recommendations would be appreciated. -- Never apply a Star Trek solution to a Babylon 5 problem. Larry W.
