SQLServerCentral.com HOWTO Series: Detach

For those of you familiar with the Linux HOWTO documents you know they are subject specific documents that explain how to perform some particular task. They are useful enough and it's a great moniker for the documentation.

But this is Windows. We deal in the graphical world, not just text. So it got the brain trust at SQLServerCentral.com thinking about how we might give the newbies out there, or those that aren't familiar with some topic, a little easier and better way of learning than just reading an article.

And we came up with the SQLServerCentral.com HOWTO series.

Subject specific learning on one aspect of SQL Server. But since this is Windows, the documentation isn't a written article. It's a short flash movie that you can watch someone actually perform the actions, with sound, showing you exactly how to handle something. You can pause, rewind, refer back, whatever you need.

Learning your way! TiVo for DBAs!!!!!!

This is a bit of a pilot for us, so we'd love some feedback on what you think and how you like it. Suggestions are always welcome and please use the forum below to help us make this better.

As with most of the learning content here, it's free, well monetarily free. There's a bit of advertising to help defray costs, but I think you'll like the ads as well and might find something to help you out in your world.
