Provides detailed information about Transact-SQL programming and shows specific differences between the Microsoft and Sybase versions of the language.

If you want to learn how to write stored procedures and triggers for Microsoft SQL Server, Code Centric: T-SQL Programming with Stored Procedures and Triggers is the book for you. Youll learn real-world coding and how to build non-trivial applications. All of the examples covered in the book are available for download, making it easier to work through over 5,000 lines of sample code. While there is extensive coverage of the new functionality in SQL Server 2000—such as UDFs (user-defined functions)—you can use this book effectively for virtually any version of SQL Server6.x, 7.0, or 2000.

This book is one of the many sources that are spread outside to learn SQL and T-SQL programming in SQL Server databases that are compiled by focusing on the practice directly and based on the author's teaching experience during this time, so that readers are expected to better understand the concepts and practices of programming in SQL Server databases. By the time this book is written the SQL Server database has already reached version 2019, therefore this book is based on that version for use in Windows operating systems. Discussion in this book starts from the basic to intermediate level, so it is expected that after studying it the reader will have strong programming skills to build database solutions with SQL and TSQL in SQL Server. Hopefully this book can be another alternative as a learning resource for exercises, tutorials, or references for those who want to learn SQL and T-SQL programming in SQL Server database.

Get a detailed look at the internal architecture of T-SQL with this comprehensive programming reference. Database developers and administrators get best practices, expert techniques, and code samples to master the intricacies of this programming language—solving complex problems with real-world solutions. Discover how to: Work with T-SQL and CLR user-defined functions, stored procedures, and triggers. Handle transactions, concurrency, and error handling. Efficiently use temporary objects, including temporary tables, table variables, and table expressions. Evaluate when to use set-based programming techniques and when to use cursors. Work with dynamic SQL in an efficient and secure manner. Treat date- and time-related data in a robust manner. Develop CLR user-defined types and learn about temporal support in the relational model. Use XML and XQuery and implement a dynamic schema solution. Work with spatial data using the new geometry and geography types and spatial indexes. Track access and changes to data using extended events, SQL Server Audit, change tracking, and change data capture. Use Service Broker for controlled asynchronous processing in database applications. All the book’s code samples will be available for download from the companion Web site.

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system, developed by the company Microsoft. The development language used (by command line or through the Management Studio graphic interface) is Transact-SQL (TSQL), an implementation of the ANSI standard of the SQL language, used to manipulate and retrieve data (DML), create tables and define relationships between them (DDL). This book develops the design, management and administration of databases through the relational language TRANSACT SQL
