5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for the novice or expert, November 22, 2000
This review is from: Informix Handbook (Hardcover)
Since I'm new to Informix, I was forever looking for a book that would help me get a better understanding on how to support Informix databases. The Informix user manuals were very unorganized make it very difficult to get the answers I needed. This book is well organized, making it easy to locate the needed information. There are plenty of useful examples that are easy to understand. This book has now become my main reference source. For the novice or expert, this book should should be in your reference library.

By 
This review is from: Informix Handbook (Hardcover)
Here is a book that is written in understandable English... divided into sections that are easy to follow.. and provides more usable examples than any handbook I have ever seen... And the fact that there is a website that can provide updates to the information in the book... makes this a handbook that will never be obsolete..
