Learning consists of doing. Studying is just a precursor to that.
So, I recommend working out some way to DO database work. If writing/tuning queries is your thing, check...

There are theoretically unbreakable codes, but not cyphers.
For example, if I tell you that the phrase, "the bear is in the woods", means, "blow up Moscow now", and you and...

SCOPE_IDENTITY() is fine for simple inserts but be aware of the following parallelism bug:http://connect.microsoft.com/SQL/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=328811

Any primary key that relies on human names is inherently flawed.
In my case, my legal first name is "Richard", but I go by an abbreviated form of my middle name,...

The main problem with solutions that make data secure, is that they also make data losable.
If, for example, only one person knows the key to the data, and that person...
