SQL Server – 2008 – Cheat Sheet – One Page PDF Download

Very frequently I have been asked to create a page, post or article where in one page all the important concepts of SQL Server are covered. SQL Server 2008 is very large subject and can not be even covered 1000 of pages. In daily life of DBA there are few commands very frequently used and for novice developers it is good to keep all the important SQL Script and SQL Statements handy.

I have attempted to create cheat sheet for SQL Server 2008 most important commands. User can print this in one A4 size page and keep along with them. This can be used in interviews where T-SQL scripts are being asked.

Let me know your opinion and if you find this useful.

    So suggest me any point from where I can start reading it.

    thanks & Regards

  • Hi Pinal Dave,

    Is there a query to check from the SQL log to see who got access to the DB and what was the Query executed by that user ?

    Also if the DB is hacked how to check the logs to see what was the attempt made to get into the database.
