Summary: "ADMINISTRATING SQL Server 7.0"
Comment: I found the publishers synopsis, and espcially the book's title to be very misleading! USING SQL Server 7.0 . . . it is not! The authors start out with "This book is written for IT professionals who want to learn how to administer SQL Server 7" in the introduction, and in chapter one they point out it is for those who want to become a SQL Server Database Administrator (DBA). "Using" SQL Server 7.0 implies to me a totally different view point. I was looking for something in an introductry guide for "users", and developers, to compliment my higher-level SQL Server Programming manual. Instead I found it is an introductry DBA manual. Even in itself, this is contradictory, as prospective DBA's require "in-depth" knowledge that this book is lacking.

Summary: Cursory Reference
Comment: I found this to be a very cursory reference manual. It did not go into the depth and detail that I would have liked. This book is more geared to beginner/intermediate analysis of SQL Server 7.0. There is no help on DTS ( a huge component of 7.0)

Summary: Good introduction and overview
Comment: "Using SQL Server 7" is a good book for beginners and still very useful when you got more experience. It describes the features clearly and also gives a lot of good examples. It's one of the best book about the SQL Server 7 I've seen.
