SQL tutorial/book/manual |

Heiko Knuettel | Hi !
Does anyone know a good link (or book) where I can learn about the more advanced SQL (2003) features ? In DBISAM I only used select/insert/update, and I'm a little lost with all that fancy new stuff in ElevateDB. The SQL manual provides the syntax, but I have to guess or try out what it's actually doing or what it's good for, and this trial and error is too time consuming. This is no complaint, I know I can't expect a SQL-2003-for-dummys to ship with ElevateDB Regards, Heiko |

Dan Rootham | Roy,
<< ps I'd also like the name of a good book on the new ElevateDB flavour of SQL >> Yes, that would be very useful. I think we should ask Ole Willy Tuv to recommend one: he's the SQL standards guru on this newsgroup and others. Ole? Regards, Dan |

<< Yes, that would be very useful. I think we should ask Ole Willy Tuv to recommend one: >> The only SQL book I've read myself is: SQL:1999 Understanding Relational Language Components Jim Melton, Alan R. Simon ISBN 1-55860-456-1 Other sources I use is the SQL standard documents: ISO/IEC 9075:2003 http://www.iso.org and the vendor manuals shipped with the RDBMS I work with. Ole Willy Tuv |

I don't know if he has an updated 2003 version or not, but the 1999 book covers most of the EDB SQL already. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
