Can anyone recommend a book for someone starting off on SQL server 7.0 ?
Or even a web-based resource ?
regards

The book "Professional SQL Server Programming" by Robert Vieira is very
good if you want to focus on the programming side of SQL.
So this book doesn't deal with backups, performance (well, a little) and
other administrative tasks, but it does focus on the language SQL used in
SQL server.
I really recommend this book.
Checkout

and

(The book got 5 out of 5 stars on Amazon. Read the customer reviews for
more backgrounders)

A great reference for your desk is Sams 'Teach Yourself SQL
in 10 minutes.' It's very simple, but if you're like me and
have a collection of four or five coding languages floating
around in your head, this is a great reference to 'remind'
you how to do something. I actually learned most of what I
know about SQL from this book, along with some excellent
on-line resources, such as
http://w3.one.net/~jhoffman/sqltut.htm (kudos to the fellow
list member who reminded me of that site!)
Good luck!

I have found SQL Server 7 Developer's Guide by Otey and Conte Published by
Osborne to be good. SQL Server (6.5 is the version I have) Unleashed is also
good.
