This does depend a bit upon what you want to learn, but the best "SQL Server Book" IMHO is Inside SQL Server 2000 (Delaney). The book discusses SQL Server in great detail, but it does not offer any information regarding ADO / ADO.NET er other middle layer / access technologies. Morty

I know the middle layer stuff. I guess I just need something that does a good job brining you up to speed quickly on the details of SQL Server as a database. I'm not a DBA and don't intend to be, but I really am in need of understanding stored procedures for my current job.

Then that book is great. It will teach you all you need to know (from a developers point of view) about SQL Server. It covers SQL Server stored procedure programming, security systems, query optimization, indexing internals, best practices and so on. It provides you with the knowledge you need to make educated decisions, but it is by NO MEANS a learn by example kinda of book. Morty ;)
