This book has very good review, MCAD/MCSD Training Guide (70-315): Developing and Implementing Web Applications with Visual C# and Visual Studio.NET (Paperback). Check it out at\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0789728222/104-7409645-9615902?v=glance&n=283155\n\nAlso try MCAD/MCSD Self-Paced Training Kit: Developing Web Applications with Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET and Microsoft Visual C#® .NET, Second Edition. Check it out at http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/6714.asp\n\nAlso remember, most of the books will be covering asp.net 1.1.  But now the focus should be on asp.net 2.0.

YOu can familiarise yourself with the free versions of DB2 and Oracle express since they are two of the most popular after SQL Server.  You should also consider the other SQL Server products such as analysis services and SSIS as there is strong demand for people who know how to use them and they have free versions you can add to your SQL Server installation.

Do you want to learn C# or Vb.net or ASP.net..\nIf you just want to understand Dotnet framework\n'MS Press - Applied Microsoft .Net Framework Programming' is a decent book to start with.

I searched last week for this exactly question. I spend few hours comparing books and I decided to order:\nhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201728281/qid=1148151332/sr=2-2/ref=sr_2_3_2/202-6632911-2431827\nIt has the best user feedback in amazon. And I agree, after reading few chapters I think it's an excellent choice to prepare you for the 1.4 cert.\ngood luck :)

you have a number of options depending on your financial \n\n1) read lots of books I've listed a couple below from my personal library\n\nThe Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit by Ralph Kimball gives you a good basic knowledge of datawarehousing.\n\nOnce you understand the concepts of datawharehousing you just have to know oracles syntax, so any decent dba books are good (i prefer the oreily series)\n\nAlso Oracle SQL Tuning Pocket Reference by Mark Gurrey is pretty usefull for speeding the whole wharehouse up.\n\n2) Attend a few of the oracle education courses. I havent attended one for a few years but they were verry usefull when I was learning. Go to the oracle site for more info on that. \n\nThe ideal solution is to do both but 2) is expensive  and one more bit of advice - learn the concepts before you touch oracle, and remember that your first attempt will be naff.\n\nremember that the only thing that will make you an expert is to know the majority of the stuff - and of course to have at least 5 total disasters under your belt

A good book to begin to learn and understand ABAP is "ABAP Objects - An introduction to Programming SAP Applications" Published by SAPPRESS \nISBN 0-201-75080-5\nIt includes a 2 CD set which contains MINI-SAP , so that you can install it on your own PC and actually work with the examples in the book.\n\nSAP has begun to embrace Java And ABAP as programming languages and developed tools where you can create Web Interfaces with both languages.\n\nI've only been a ABAPer for less than a year, but thus am learning the newest SAP technologies. However I bet the person who last answered could teach me alot.

HTML, CSS, JavaScript, XML, AJAX.\n\n.Net is the next big thing. ASP.NET, VB.NET, C#.NET. If you want a decent job in the future doing development learn some .NET technologies.\n\nAlso you can never go wrong with SQL
