In SQL Server 2000, I could generate scripts in Enterprise Manager and
then open them up in Textpad or Notepad and make changes if I needed
to, then go and open the file in Query Analzyer and run it without a
problem--having to deal with Unicode was never an issue. I should have
phrased my question better to make it more along the lines of why
Microsoft changed the default setting, etc. the way that they did.
I'll resist answering my question with a sarcastic answer:-)
What books would you recommend for someone transitioning from 2000 to
2005? Back in 2000, I bought the book "Professional SQL Server 7.0
Programming" by Rob Vieira and used that to teach myself SQL Server 7
(I had never used it before prior to the year 2000 and never took a
training class for it) and that book has been a great reference book
through the years for my coworkers and me but from looking at Amazon,
the 2005 version of his book won't be released until November and I'm
needing to learn about the differences now. Not only with programming
but with some of the DBA tasks (I'm not a DBA but I do some of the DBA
stuff). Preferably a book not released by Microsoft Press:-)
Thanks.
