DESCRIPTION:
Surely one of the larger computer books in the Wrox line, Professional ASP Data Access presents a wide-ranging tour of Microsoft technologies, centering on databases and Web development. E-commerce is explained using a sample Web site that includes membership features. There's also good coverage of beginning and advanced uses of SQL (including an excellent section on joins) and today's popular XML standard for delivering data between tiers. --Richard DraganTopics covered:History of databases Introduction to database design Normalization SQL tutorial (basics and joins) Stored procedures and

Active Server Pages, together with ADO and OLEDB, can bring about this access to a myriad of data stores. This means data access and manipulation on the server to bring dynamic content to the end user.
