You'd want a book that's specific to MSSQL. Yes, the underlying SQL is the same in each one, but each has a list of functions and features that are specific to it. Having a book on what you're actually using is going to be most useful. Don't chuck the MySQL book, though. Read it in conjunction with the other and you'll get the best of both worlds... ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
