With SQL, you can turn your ordinary questions into statements that your database system can understand. The reader might already know how to extract this type of information by using a graphical query or reporting tool, but perhaps the reader has noticed that this tool becomes limiting or cumbersome as questions grow in complexity--that's where SQL comes in. This new edition of 'SQL: Visual QuickStart Guide' covers the most recent versions of popular DBMSs, adds a chapter on SQL tricks, and includes new programming tips, new sidebars on subtle or advanced topics, and other odds and ends."
