Rating:  - Best overall SQL 2000 book
By far, this is the best overall MS SQL 2000 server book written until today. Most topics are covered from basic to advance level. This book is a must have for anyone who is looking to get a well rounded knowledge of what's possible with MS SQL 2000.
The chapters I liked the most are:
Ch9 SQL Server Storage and Index Structures
Ch10 Views
Ch12 Stored Procedures
Ch15 Triggers
Ch16 Advanced Queries
Ch26 Full-Text Search
Ch29 Performance Tuning ... Read More
Rating:  - Not bad not good
In general the book is ok. The author needed to make more research in some areas and not made use only of his own experience.

Rating: - Tiny font
Excellent book, but the font is VERY small which makes reading difficult even though I do not have vision problems.
Rating: - One of the best!!
I have this book and I can say it is the best SQL Server book I have ever read. It may even be the best Development/Computer book I have. Every chapter is easy to read, detailed and concise. The coverage is phenomenal. I use this for reference quite a bit. The only thing that is missing is more detail on DTS... but that is a book in itself.
Rating:  - Un-satisfied with this book
If you ever read this book: Joe Sack' SQL server 2000 Fast Answers for DBA and Developer, then you will see Vieira's book misses so many details about SQL server 2000. Understanding that this book focuses on PROGRAMMING only, but still it misses many PROGRAMMING DETAILS of SQL server 2000. I do not have no connection to Joe Sack's business. I read and compare the two and speak out my mind.
