Re: Training - where did you learn?

If you have well absorbate the standard SQL 3 (in fact SQL:1999) like in 
the melton's books you will probably learn fast how does IBM implement 
his sql dialect, wich is close to the standard.

The only important fact is that DB2 do not use the collations. Wich for 
me is a big lack.

For the dba topic, a book and some practising examples will be able to 
make you a IBM DB2 admin with a correct level.

See the books from Prentice Hall ISBN : 0-13-100772-1 for the procedural 
language part and ISBN0-13-046361-2 for the dba part
