I am looking for some detailed excercises/example for learning SQL Server using some sample database like Northwind,pubs or adventureworks. I am using sql server 2008.
Can anyone please point me to some resources where I can find some sort of turorial/demos/samples based on any dummy database? My idea is to learn all the basics of SQL server from querying to database, creating databases, delete, permissions and also use
complex queries by setting all these tasks under one objective.
Thanks.
