Need Tech Review of MSSQL Backup Chapter for O'Reilly Book

My name is W. Curtis Preston, and I'm the author of "Backup & Recovery"
(formerly "Unix Backup & Recovery") from O'Reilly & Associates.
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/unixbr/ )

We're updating the book for 2006 and adding a chapter on SQL Server
backup and recovery. Someone has already written what appears to be a
strong chapter. The problem is that I'm not qualified to review it,
since I'm not that familiar with SQL Server

Can anyone in this group step up to the plate and review the SQL Server
chapter? You would be mentioned in the acknowledgments of the book and
receive an autographed copy of the book.

We're looking for two tech reviewers.

The following is an extract of a review of the book 'Programming C#' by Jesse Libety and published by O'Reilly. The review is from TechBookReport (http://www.techbookreport.com): Jesse Liberty's Programming C# quickly established itself as one of the better C# books when the language (and .NET) was first introduced by Microsoft. Now, timed to coincide with the hoped for release of .NET 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005, O'Reilly have released a...

I will be teaching an eCommerce application development course using ASP.Net after many years of having taught classic ASP.

Hi, I have worked with VB.NET for half a year (semi-newbie). Currently I am looking around for some books for those that crossed the starting hurdle. There are too many books out there-make choosing, a bit of a gamble. If you have experience of good VB.NET books on general and office automattion, you could recommend, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, in order to perform backup/restore MSSQL database using SMO, one needs to reference several namespaces in a backup class : using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common; using Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo; Unfortunately, MSSQL 2005 and MSSQL Express keep them in different place. For MSSQL2005 they are located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server \90\SDK\Assemblies and for MSSQL Express you can find them in C:

I see general messages about how to learn .NET but I have an immediate requirement to ramp up my old skills very quickly. Can anyone recommend the FASTEST way for me to get almost-competent in VB.NET (C# will come later)?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
