This article briefly explains how to write a subquery in SQL by providing examples.

This article gives an overview of the SQL Server ISNUMERIC built-in system function. It explains how to use this function, illustrates its limitations, and provides some alternatives.

In the previous articles we’ve talked about SQL injection and dynamic SQL but we lacked an answer on how to prevent SQL injection attacks. Today we’ll do exactly that and show you one possible approach to how to do it. We’ll also mention other possible threats and approaches you could take.

SQL Essentials stairway series helps readers understand the most common database language SQL uses for data munging and data wrangling. SQL Essentials articles is a collection of SQL standards and best practices and help you take you in step closer to learn database query.

Dynamic SQL is a programming technique you can use to build SQL statements as textual strings and execute them later. This technique could prove to be useful in some cases and therefore it’s good to know we have it as an option. In today’s article, we’ll show how to create and execute dynamic SQL statements.

In this article, we will learn how to use SQL SELECT TOP queries and we will also reinforce this learning using examples.

In this article, we will explore User-defined SQL Server Types and their usage.

SQL Injection is a well-known technique used to attack SQL-based applications.

Non-Equi join in SQL Server sounds like something abstract (and fancy), but it’s not so abstract (and fancy) at all. The same stands for equi joins. After reading this article, I hope you’ll agree on that with me. Today’ I’ll try to explain what they are and when you should use them. So, let’s start.

In today’s article, we’ll take a look at 4 common SQL-related jobs and roles and explain what kind of tasks you could expect at each of these roles and what types of queries you’ll possibly use to solve these tasks. If you’re already in any of these roles, you’re probably familiar with this, but if you’re new to the world of SQL, you could find this very useful to decide in which way you want your career to develop.
