You will learn how to expertly run queries in a smart and intelligent way.

In this course you'll learn all the basics about SQL queries:

* The SELECT statement

* The FROM clause

* The WHERE clause

* The ORDER BY and GROUP BY clauses

... as well as a brief look at temp tables, table variables and UNION queries.

At the end we have two bonus sections:

1. A brief look at STORED PROCEDURES

2. A brief look at USER DEFINED FUNCTIONS

This course has a lot of learning packed into roughly 4 to 5 hours of instruction.

You will need to download and install any version of SQL Server, like SQL Express.

You should have an awareness of databases, particularly relational databases: Tables, records, etc.
