I bought this book for learning
J2EE by Pallavi Jain and Shadab Siddiqui. The databases it uses are built with Microsoft SQL Server 2000. The book includes no databases and I am pretty sure there is no learning version of it on the net(please correct me if I am wrong).
I am wondering if I change the database the projects access through
Servlets from MS SQL Server 2000 to MySQL or McKoi , given I am new to database access and J2EE and Servlets, am I likely to get hopelessly confused?
If yes, can anyone recommend a book that walks me through building one or more projects that use databases, EJB,
JSP and J2EE. I am trying to figure out if I should take this book back and get something more useful.
