In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "The server-related views: sys.sql_logins and sys.databases can be used to review logins and databases."

A block of code is set as follows:

Initial Catalog=Bluesky
Data Source=tcp:Your Server Name.database.windows.net
User ID=Your Project Name @Your Server Name
Password=Your Password;
Trusted_Connection=False
Encrypt=True

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

Provider = SQLNCLI10.1;
Server = tcp:Your Server Name.database.windows.net;
Database = Bluesky;
 UID= Your Project Name @ Your Server Name;
Password = Your Password;

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

 C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727>aspnet_regsql /?

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Click on the Next button".
