Is it referring to me or Gerard? .NET documentation is usually not helpful (and this is not only my observation, I spoke with a friend recently who started working with C#). When I need to find a syntax of a command, MS will give very short description, no samples at all. I have to search for more and more info online. If I need to learn some SQL Server command syntax, the first MS link will be enough.
