1. Read Books Online. I’ve read Books Online from start to finish for every version since 6.5. It takes time. You learn a lot though. 2. Buy good books and read those. Start with anything from Ken Henderson or Kalen Delaney. Inside SQL Server by Kalen is a great book to start with. The Performance Tuning Technical Manual by Microsoft Press is a great book also. 3. Read and participate in forums such as this one and www.sqlteam.com. 4. Do. Find projects to work on and expand your skills. Try things out when you see them in a book or online. Make yourself the expert. Work examples in SQL Server Magazine. Constantly stretch yourself.
