Ron,
For a quick intro to SS2K from an Oracle perspective, have a browse at
http://www.sqlpass.org/news/05June/index.cfm?passnews=SQL_Server. Chris
Kempster (previously in this list) once wrote a 'SQL Server 2000 for the
Oracle DBA' E-book - that may cover these issues in more detail.
SQLServerCentral.com is a great site (once you get over the fact that
rebuilding indexes is a recommended, indeed necessary action at this
site and *basic* newbie questions are the norm), given the myths and
failings of M$ ;-)
One of the biggest issue with SQL Server (at least SS2K) is that of
transaction consistency and associated issues. I believe SQL Server 2005
takes care of most of that (yet to be seen).

Subject: Reference material recommendations
List,
We are migrating our network platform to Win from Novell and will be
having several SQL Server databases. The current Linux/Oracle
configuration will remain intact for a least a few years.
I have been searching for information that will help me learn and
understand the SQL Server world as I will pick up the additional
databases. The most informative site I have found so far is the
SQLServer ebooks site.
What sites and references would you recommend I investigate as I
increase my database knowledge and responsibilities. With you
recommendations I should be able to forecast a reasonable budget for the
needed training and materials.
Thanks,
Ron Rogers
