Thank you all for places to get my foundation built. I think from there, I can 
build my own house

If your just interested in an easy paced method, and not something you need to 
master tomorrow.
Look into www.ed2go.com They work with many of the community colleges and offer 
many 6 week Mini-classes. They are not college credit classes, but they are 
fairly inexpensive apx $95.00 A class.

I have taken a lot of these for fundamentals.

The only thing I don't like, is when you want to do more, they only release the 
lessons twice a week, And you can't work ahead...

The advantage is that the class is easy paced, and has an instructor (forum 
formatted for questions) that You can ask questions from, who will usually 
answer advanced questions that the course does not cover, just Because they 
can, not because they have to.

I was in the same boat. Also, If you don't apply it, it really makes it 
difficult. Setup a MySQL (WAMP) on A PC, and start playing with some database 
projects. I have found that having a PICK background gives me An unusual style 
in creating SQL queries, such as creating functions as mini I-DESC, then using 
the Functions in SQL queries vs trying to setup a complicated JOIN.

        Our environment here is changing considerably and the focus is more and 
more inclusive of Sql database(s).  My knowledge of Sql extends slightly past 
the ability to spell it.  If  I could get some suggestions on some good venues 
to learn the query language for this new database, it would be appreciated.  
There are so many books and venues out there, it is difficult to separate the 
good from the bad from the ugly.

TIA,

Barry Rogen
