Customer comments on this selection.
 A Treasure
Read the negative reveiws and bought the book anyway. Still can't figure out what it was that other reviewers found objectionable...
br /
br /This book was helpful to me because it takes the subject of a SQL query much deeper than most of the texts that I have read. It puts emphasis on solving problems using the query language instead of procedural language, and it shows some truly eye-opening examples of what can be done with a simple SELECT statement.
br /
br /The authors are clearly subject experts, and their work is in keeping with O'Reilly's generally high standards for technical references. My only regret is that the book wasn't longer.
A desktop must SQL SERVER 2000 and Transact SQL
I cannot say enough great things about this book! I'm a SQL Server developer and have used many forms of the logic presented from this book in many of my daily routines. This is my first review and my inspiration was to oppose all negative or irrational comments made in some of the previous reviews. Are you sure you read the "T-SQL Cookbook" by OReilly's? Might be a little too advanced for some, I can see that in your reveiw. How is it not in depth? Because it is not for beginners? It has thousands of sollutions to everyday problems. BUY THIS BOOK FOR A GREAT REPORT WRITING TOOL, DEVELPOR HANDBOOK OR WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO DO IN SQL SERVER 2000!!!!!!!!!
 A bad book
Bought this without reading the reviews. Big mistake. Full of terribly simple examples and bad English. Not worth the time at all. Don't know where they get some of these authors.
Terrible, just terrible
This book isn't worth the paper its printed on. The code is all stuff from magazines and other books. I see a lot of code from Henderson's book here. The writing is also terrible - no explanations whatsoever. Suggest spending your money on something else-just about anything, in fact.
A very practical guide to T-SQL programming!
This is a very concise and to-the-point book. It assumes that the user has a basic understanding of T-SQL. So, you won't see any repetition from SQL Server Books Online. pAuthors chose very interesting topics, and backed them up with real life scenarios and practical examples. So, every example makes sense. pBook is very easy to read and understand. If you are a beginner T-SQL programmer (or someone coming from a VB or other programming backgrounds), this book helps you get on the right track, as it clearly explains how to think in terms of sets. If you are an intermediate level SQL programmer, you can really use the examples provided in this book and start your journey towards becoming an advanced SQL programmer. For advanced users of SQL, this serves as a great reference.
