XML and SQL Server 2000 is the ideal resource for SQL developers who need to learn about the new XML capabilities of SQL Server 2000. If you're a web developer who wants to utilize XML in your projects but are worried about the complexities of the standard or its implementation-this book will bring you up to speed quickly.
John Griffin begins by providing a refresher on XML and continues into thorough coverage of Document Type Definitions (DTDs) and their uses for document validation. He presents the many ways of generating and manipulating XML from SQL Server 2000 along with the intricacies of Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT), the XPath specification, and Microsoft's Extended Data Reduced (XDR) schema.
Numerous examples and methodical treatment of both XML document generation and database data insertion from XML documents make this book a must-have for any developer interested in a specialized, complete, and detailed view of SQL Server 2000's XML capabilities.
