err theres no such thing
SQL Server 2000 was the last release of SQL, the next release (Yukon codename) isnt expected to be released until 2005

SQL is a database server from microsoft (well SQL is actually the language of the database, MSSQLSErver is the ms offering
SQL stands for Structured Query Language, and there is TSQL (Transact SQL)
its not something you could really get a quick overview of, its a very vast and complex system, which is why MS has a dedicated track JUST for database administrators

 

Yup, i'd agree with Pheonix. It isn't a subject you're going to easily get your head round with half an hours reading before an interview. However a good place to start would be the official website http://www.microsoft.com/sql/default.asp

So, how did the interview go Gary?
