Microsoft Visio 2010 is a bold new release. If you’re new to Visio, your timing is excellent! This version of Visio is easier to use than ever before and yet the diagrams you create can have more impact and style, and can present more real-world data than in any previous version.
A few years ago, a magazine sponsored a contest for the comment most likely to end a conversation. The winning entry? "I teach English grammar." Just throw that line out at a party; everyone around you will clam up or start saying "whom."
Why does grammar make everyone so nervous? Probably because English...
SQL Tuning author Dan Tow outlines a timesaving method he's developed for finding the optimum execution plan--rapidly and systematically--regardless of the complexity of the SQL or the database platform being used. You'll learn how to understand and control SQL execution plans and how to diagram SQL queries to...
