Hi Guys, I'm so glad I found this site. I really want to learn MS SQL. Lots of information on this site. My job requires me to work on MS SQL studio, basically to harvest info on the existing database table and transfer the gathered info to new database tables.
Can somebody recommend a good book on MS SQL server studio.Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the forum. First of all, have you looked at this book section?[/url]
Now a quick question, what is your job role, developer, administrator etc.?

My job is in building automation, cctv, access control. Most of the systems are run on SQL express.If we have system takeover from different vendor we want to harvest all the people, credential# on their system database and transfer to our system database.

Quite interesting and bound to have some challenges, more on the development side I presume. Best of luck and don't hesitate coming back with any questions.
On the book selection, I suggest Itzik Ben-Gan, Joe Celko, Adam Jorgensen, Kalen Delaney, Grant Fritchey and Wayne Sheffield to name few, all depends on the tasks at hand.
Several good articles on SSC website too, some much better than many books 😉

I've never seen a book just on Management Studio. Most of the books are around doing things within SQL Server Management Studio and then, by extension, teach it. For an introduction to SQL Server, if you're really just getting started, I'd suggest this book that I helped write. Other than that, your best friend in the world are the Books Online from Microsoft.
