SQL help

[Saga]

I'm trying to learn SQL for a potentially lucrative freelance opportunity and I'm having issues installing SQL Server Express 2008, it's an enormous hassle for what feels like should be a simple fix. Anyone have a working download link or a better way to brush up on the software and the commands? Been forever since I've done a basic lookup.

Does your pc have access? you can write queries in SQL in there if you change the query editor to SQL mode. Some things are a bit different, but its not so bad to use to get back on the right track.

Yeah I've got access, I'll start fooling around with that now. Thanks for the tip.

You can download the SQL Server 2012 Express edition from microsoft site or using this link https://www.microsoft.com/betaexperi...SQLEXPWT/enus/.
For samples and documentation about commands I suggest the MSDN Library, you can find it following this link
