>Is there a very basic learning resource for SQL Server? I have been using free tables since FPD and have no idea how to even use Views or Database Containers so I need to start from the very bottom. I believe there is a low end version of SQL Server (like an Express version) I could practice on without needing to set up a server.
>I also make a lot of use of cursors eg; working at the client end my users work in a cursor then at save I lock all the files and write the data, pretty basic stuff, but it works well and is very fast.
>I feel that I may need to move to the real world of Client Server. BTW I am not a contract developer and as such have not need for RAD, my accounting software has taken years to build and has a good following of regular clients. I feel the security of SQL might be the way to go, it will also give me the opportunity to build thin client apps like smartphones etc.
