I often use www.w3schools.com for learning the many facets of SQL and integration of SQL with different products. This site though is not just limited to SQL, it is useful with other areas such as jquery, xml, asp.net, and php to name a few. If working in working with Unix and Windows environment I have found MobaXterm to be a wonderful cross platform software tool for management and development of my server and client machines.

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. George 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. -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Barry Rogen Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2012 9:45 AM To: 'U2 Users List' Subject: [U2] [OT] Sql Query 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.
