Advanced Database Techniques
And then some...
Sitting in the class by Kenneth Fricklas, and learning a bunch of nifty SQL tricks (SELECT FOR UPDATE), record locking, "Dirty reads" (just fun to say) and how to better use Triggers (INSTEAD OF is hawt I tell you... hawt... [and yes, I spelled that right]). This is definitely worth the price of admission, and it looks like I'll be doing some revisions to the DWfaq database and the store to make my life a little easier :). Also learning some good stuff about how to improve performance and just generally make my apps faster and more efficient. Hopefully you're not all too jealous ;).
