Negative Positive
Title: Disjointed and rife with errors/obsoletes
Review: This book is outdated. Many of the examples only work on version 6.5. The book is seems fairly comprehensive, but targets an old version of the server. Much of the sample code seems to be even older -- I suspect much of it was developed for 4.2. Also, the syntactical differences between Sybase and Microsoft Transact-SQL are often blurred. The book should have focused on only one of them -- they are enough different to warrant this.
Is the review positive or negative?
