I haven't read it front to back, but I have an affinity for New Rider's MySQL by Paul DuBois. (It's where I picked up PHP, and has been a useful reference for me these days, as I work as a newbie MySQL coder :^) ) I've also got O'Reilly's MySQL Cookbook (also by DuBois) sitting here on my desk, and have found it useful to get some real-world questions answered quickly. 'course, I'm working at a tech. book store right now, so I'll no doubt start poking my nose in the dozen other titles we have sitting on the shelf here. :^) -bill! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Got kids?

I got both books (including MySQL 2nd Edition) at a 30% discount off the list price plus another $10 off with a coupon plus free shipping. So don't pay retail (unless you have plenty of $$). I got one book from Amazon and the other from Chapters. You need to search around for a coupon site and you'll usually find a $10 off coupon that can be applied to each bookstore. Since there was free shipping it didn't cost me anything to order it from 2 different locations. If they were any cheaper, Paul would have to pay me to take them.vbg Mike (el cheapo) -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
