Negative Positive
Title: Very poor coverage of 7.0
Review: I recently switched from years of Oracle PL/SQL work to Microsoft Transact-SQL. Having had good luck with other O'Reilly titles, I bought this book. I had high hopes that were very quickly dashed. Many of the examples in this book don't work for SQL Server 7.0 because they are apparently geared toward an earlier release of the product. In my first night with this book, I found no less than a dozen examples that would run on SQL Server 7.0. I was really bummed out and frustrated by this. I'm still looking for a good Transact-SQL book that covers 7.0.
Is the review positive or negative?
