The second half of the book outlines the portions and classes of the SQL Server schema.

The CD-ROM contains scripts from the book in both VBScript and Perl. A quick-start guide to mastering all of SQL Server 2000's hot new Web development and database programming features SQL Server 2000's new XML features, Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), and scripting capabilities make it easier than ever for Web developers to create and manage flexible, scalable database applications optimized for the Internet--especially e-commerce applications.

Customer Reviews Reviewer: A reader from Tampa, FL USA I read Mr. Martinsson's other book, ActivePerl, and I really enjoy his writing style. I guess some people get it, and some don't. This book is especially strong if you are interested in WMI. While it touches on XML, it may be misleading to put XML first in the title. Nonetheless, it is an excellent treatment of scripting for SQL Server 2000 ... Reviewer: Robert A. Harris from Chicago, IL USA Wanted to learn programming SQL Server 2000 with WMI. I'm a programmer, so the book's approach fits me. WMI text and samples worked for me. I learned WMI. I'm happy. XML is not what I bought it for. I know MSXML, XSLT, XPath, yada yada yada. But I found some stuff I can use with ADO and MSXML. It's a bonus. Another bonus: the code samples are available in Perl. Found them on the CD-ROM next to the VBScript samples. A pleasant surprise because the booktext shows example-code in VBScript. Reviewer: Mark A. Taylor from Scottsdale, AZ United States I thought this book was one of the worst I have ever purchased. There are annoying mistakes in the sample queries, e.g., mispelled field names that will just drive you crazy. I can't speak for the WMI section, I bought this book for the SQL Server 2000 with XML info. I learned more at MSDN. |
