Please note that due to the volume of letters received,
I am not able to answer all of them. (Maybe if my book sells half a million
copies, and I can retire from my day job because of the royalties, I will then
be able to spend more time answering your questions!) Before you send me a
comment, check out my
blog to see if Ive discussed the issue there. :-)
If you have general questions, not related to my
writings, you can get free peer support through Microsoft's public newsgroups.
Use any newsreader, connect to the server msnews.microsoft.com, and search for
the sqlserver sections. Microsoft support engineers sometimes monitor those
forums, and also the MVPs can file and research bugs directly with Microsoft.
You can also access these newsgroups through a web browser at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/newsgroups/server/sql.mspx.
That page gives you the option of posting questions using a web interface, or
opening up a newsgroup through a newsreader. The newsgroups I check most often
are:
- SQL Server
- SQL Server Programming
- SQL Server Connection Issues
- SQL Server Tools
- SQL Server Setup
