Shawn, and others: Thanks, your unanimous agreement cinches it as the next book after finishing the WACK 3 months from now. I remember Shawn sharing that this was the book in the past but I forgot the name. I am now ready to buy.
Dean: Thanks for the additional words. I will also get SQL for Smarties by Joe Celko also. I know I will need to build scripts etc in due time and such. This seems that it will be a good primer for that. Robert P.
