I would not recommend any book or course that used SQL Server to
introduce database concepts. Take a look at "Introduction to Database
Systems" by C.J.Date. "Database In Depth" by the same author is a
shorter summary but it does assume some prior knowledge.
Begin with SQL Server AFTER learning the concepts.

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.
