I found a cute title: "Sams Teach Yourself SQL In 10 Minutes"
If the author is not aware that "a set of sessions, 10 minutes each" (that how the book really is supposed to be learned), is certainly not the same as a single 10 minutes long interval (which is how I read the title), his ambition to teach SQL is probably overstreched;-) Received on Thu Sep 19 2002 - 03:31:14 CEST
