Hi, all

I'm looking at getting a study guide for the 70-229 exam (SQL Server 2000
Enterprise Design/Implementation). I'm thinking of getting the QUE one
(formerly 'New Riders'), but I've read some rather negative reviews on the
book.

Does anyone have advice on what study guide I should get? Which book did you
use for the exam (if any) and do you think it helped much? I would greatly
appreciate any recommendations.

Regards,
JAC.

I used ExamCram for 70-029 (I don't remember who is author , book is
read one and as primary resource SQL Server Books online. There is also
one great book "Inside MS SQL Server 2000" by Kalen Delaney, it is not
usefull for passing exam but it is good reading about SQL 2k.

70-029 is SQL Server 7.0 right?

Yes - 70-029 is for SQL Server 7.0.

For 70-229 the only three resources you need are:

- MSDN
- SQL Server Books Online
- Tim's 70-229 Links

I found ExamCram for 70-029 as good preparation for 70-229, as for me there
is not very bug "What's new" section in SQL 2000.
