JOINs and UNIONs - Working with Multiple Tables - Video Category (all video categories)
Video Image If you had to guess, what percentage of the queries you write/maintain are JOINs? If you are working in a Transactional system, the answer is probably 50%, 60%, 70%, or higher. Those of you working with Data Warehouses might have a smaller number such as 10-40%. The point is that you need to know the inner working of JOINs and UNIONs to be successful!

Versions/Editions Covered: SQL Server 2005 , SQL Server 2000 , SQL Server 2008

Miscellaneous Bits & Pieces:
Helpful Keyboard Shortcuts: "CTRL" + "SHIFT" highlights a block of text when used with the arrow keys
After SQL Server 2000 you should not be using @@IDENTITY in your code. Microsoft replaced @@IDENTITY with SCOPE_IDENTITY() in SQL Server 2000
Security Tip: Protect your "sa" account by using a very strong password. Hackers can issue dictionary attacks against your SQL Server and attempt to guess your "sa" password with brute force. By providing a password that (a) cannot be found in any dictionary, and (b) contains letters, numbers, and special characters, you give yourself maximum password protection
