Hi all,


in a previous role I have used a small amount of SQL, but I have now bought a SAMS 24 hour book, and would appreciate any advice on the quickest and easiest way of setting up a test SQL DB (including software needed or recommended)

Thanks.

If you're going to be writing for MS SQL Server, try installing MSDE (Desktop Edition)
