[CODE4LIB] Microsoft Transit-SQL
I am looking for a good text on Microsoft Transit-SQL. I have searched high and low and all I find are books focused on Microsoft SQL Server. I am not setting up a server, I need to teach myself the database structure and language. Any suggestions? I did order Microsoft SQL Server 2008 All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies from Amazon because it has a large section on Transit-SQL. - Wilfred (Bill) Drew, M.S., B.S., A.S.

I am looking for a good text on Microsoft Transit-SQL. I have searched high and low and all I find are books focused on Microsoft SQL Server. Do you mean Transact-SQL (which I usually just see abbreviated T-SQL) ? The online documentation at msdn isn't great, but it's not horrible. That's usually what I use. I mean, usually it's just a matter of looking up how it implements SQL and some of the local variants. (Do you need recommendations for books on SQL?) Jon Gorman

There's the O'Reilly book Transact-SQL Programming: http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9781565924017.do However, it's worth noting that the book is really out of date at this point.
