Where possible, our experienced trainers will take the time to discuss the how and where to use each aspect of TSQL covered in the course.

  • Accessing the TSQL language using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS)
  • Getting to use SSMS to write TSQL to write queries using a single table
  • Using more than one table using joins such as inner, outer and cross
  • Applying filters to the output to reduce the number of rows returned
  • Analysing data to return aggregated results using group by and a few functions
  • Using functions to convert and cast the data between data types.

  • Single aggregates
  • GROUP BY
  • HAVING

Module 6: Using multiple tables
