Earning Credit
The topic of plagiarism rears its head at SQLServerCentral and Steve Jones has some comments and an apology.
Sample Chapter from Murach's SQL Server 2008 for Developers
Chapter 3 from Murach’s SQL Server 2008 for Developers shows you how to retrieve data from a database table. In the process, you’ll master the basic skills that you’ll use in coding almost any SELECT statement, no matter how complex. At that point, you’ll be ready to learn how to code joins, summary queries, subqueries, and action queries, and then move on to working with server-side features like cursors and stored procedures.
