  I've decided to learn Reporting Services but haven't done reporting for a number of years. I tried the Virtual labs but they are a little to basic. Nothing has leaped out at me browsing books on Amazon.

  I'm interested in a very hands on book with lots of labs exercises. If you have a recommendation I'd love to hear about.

  Me to... does anyone have a recommendation on this?

  RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
  First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
  ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

  Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

  I think I'm going to go with :
