thousands of c# programmers have become database professionals through the first two editions of this book. this third edition is even more comprehensive, but, as always, it assumes only basic knowledge of c#-and absolutely no experience with databases. everything you need to know to get off to the fastest start in database programming is clearly explained by examples you can use in professional, real-world programs.
database proficiency requires basic understanding of relational concepts, reasonable competence with the database language sql, and clear knowledge of how to interface between c# programs and databases. we introduce all concepts carefully, in the order in which you can best learn them, and then we gradually use them in concert to reinforce your understanding.
you'll learn how to define, query, and manipulate database data with t-sql and how to manage sql server express databases with sql server management studio express. you'll learn about ado.net and how to use it to access databases from c#. you'll even learn how to write stored procedures and call them from c# programs. you'll learn much more besides. our focus is always on fundamental concepts and techniques that won't change even when database technology does.
the major changes to this edition are due to new technology. we cover the new xml data type and show you how to use it and other t-sql features to manipulate xml-techniques that many experienced t-sql programmers oftendon't know well. the most dramatic change is the new final chapter, which introduces language-integrated query (linq), a powerful alternative to traditional ado.net programming that promises to be the future of all data access in .net.
so, whatever your database background or programming needs, we're sure you'll find in here all you need to become a highly proficient database programmer. we believe you'll have as much fun learning database programming as we have doing database programming.
