Summary: Vague, poorly edited, and generally useless
Comment: After having read eight syngress books for certifications, this is the first time I had to get supplemental material to pass an exam. This book is vague, poorly organized, full of typos and syntax errors. It does not go into enough detail to help you pass the 70-229 exam or even gain a usable knowledge of MS SQL. This book is a waste of money. TRY SOMETHING ELSE!!!! I read "Inside SQL Server 2000" by Microsoft Press in order to pass the exam.

Rating: 5
Summary: Quite good from novice perspective
Comment: This book is a great primer for the Exam and SQL Server development in general. While you obviously need to live, eat, and sleep Books On Line to pass the exam, this was a great place to start. I found the chapter on T-SQL to be one of the better ones I've ever read, and I still refer to it often. While no book gives you the test answers (try brain dumps if you want that), I find this a great book.

Summary: Not very good for 70-229...
Comment: Needing to pass another test to keep my MCSD cert, I tried this book as prep for 70-229. Did the whole thing and examples. From passing other cert tests I knew it was LIGHT on specifics!. Talkes a lot about SQL server and new features in a general way but skirts around necessary details, specifics and examples needed to pass...

Had to buy another book(Que Exam Geer: 70-229 SQL Design/Implement) and then went and past the test...
