Thanks

If you mean a good book for accessing SQL Server you can't go wrong (or get much better) with The Hitchhiker's Guide to Visual Basic and SQL Server by William Vaughn. Published by Microsoft Press. The latest edition I think is still the 6th edition. It covers ADO, RDO and DAO and accessing all different types of databases. It focuses on SQL Server, of course, and shows you how to write stored procedures for SQL Server.

I think it is one of the best books for data access in general as well as for writing code against SQL Server.

You should also look for Programming SQL Server Unleased published by SAMS. I think their latest edition covers SQL Server 7.0 as well.

Hope this helps,
John
