Free SQL Server Goodies


Michael K. Campbell has shared some useful SQL Server goodies that are available online, in his article in DevProConnections. I picked the ones I liked -

* Scripts - TechNet's Script Repository has a vast repository of scripts provided by Microsoft and by its users/customers that you can adapt for your own requirements.

* Books - Red Gate Software which sells some great developer tools also publishes books. Some of them are available for free download in PDF format -
  • SQL Server Stumpers Vol.5
