How to simplify SQL querying, analysis and reporting

June 13th, 2011 by Josh Howard

Looking to build cross-platform queries or write a SQL query without being an expert? We’re doing a live webcast this Wednesday, June 15th at 8:30 am PT specifically for Analysts on how to simplify SQL querying, analysis and reporting. The webcast presenter will use the Toad for Data Analysts tool in his presentation, but it can be downloaded for free on http://www.toadworld.com and there will be a lot of good tips and tricks. If you are interested in attending, you can join and read the abstract at http://bit.ly/kUNLhD
