Hi Jared,
Just
so I'm clear which one to avoid, are you referring to the one that links to the
excerpt from this book?
Sams Teach Yourself SQL
in 21 Days, Second Edition
The reason I'm asking is I entered your URL below but
received a "Page Not Found" error.
When I searched the TinyURL site for "normalization" hits,
this is what I came up with.
Thanks,
Melanie

List,
Doing some reading on Normalization today. We actually have the opportunity
to create a database and app, and it's been so long since I've done this on a real
project, a refresher was in order.
I have the annoying habit of knowing what to do with normalization, based on past
education and experience, but having difficulty explaining it to others. This is the kind
of thing that makes Cary Millsap nuts. ( read the book if you don't know why )
Mladen would no doubt find this very simple.
Anyway, in the course of finding some recent web pages on this, one of the better
was at a SQL server magazine site: http://www.sqlmag.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=4887&pg=1
The reason for writing however, was to show you the worst one so far: www.tinyurl/th7i
Basically, 'normalize unless it's inconvenient'.
Jared
