hi
doeshttp://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/productCd-0764584332.html =http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/productCd-076457955X.html ??
and it is not !! what is the difference ??
and which one of these you advice me to read for beginner ??
thank you

soley from looking the table of contents, Viera's books covers the broader subject of what is a database, etc
while the Turley Wood book focuses on T-SQL, which the SQL plus Sybase/Microsoft extensions

if you are new to databases or have DBA responsibilities, start with Viera's book
if you are reasonanly familar with database or are more focus of SQL app dev, go with the Wood/Turley book

or start with Viera, then go the Wood Turley book

thank you for answer me

so can advice me for book for Beginning SQL Server 2005 Programming published by Microsoft press !!

I personally dont like MS books. They dont provide real-world examples, but only the "MS Way"... which is not always the best way.
