Hey- I've learned a whole lot from the discussion - more than I would have done if I'd had to skim read a much longer article.

I'm clearly a much less experienced database person that all you lot (I'm a .Net analyst / developer that seems to have to do more and more database work with every passing day). So short, basic articles that gloss over some of the finer details may not work quite so well for you guys (who already know the basics and more) but they're a big help for me.

(I guess DBAs don't really do "glossing over details" though, eh? That's how millions of rows get deleted by accident! ;))

I've had a quick look but couldn't see if the articles have a 'level' or 'suitable for...' category attached to them. Maybe that would help?
