Here's a list of SQL Server Tutorials (retired) for SQL Server 2008:

Evaluating Best Practices Using Policy-Based Management
Database Engine tutorials
Getting Started with the Database Engine
Writing Transact-SQL Statements

Read the views, stored procedures, and functions in the database. I don't believe there are any tutorials beyond that.

I am coding vb.net 2008 some small database-based applications. I can not decide which database management system to use that can give me the best performance (MS Access, Excel, SQL).
My application will be a multi-user database system where more than 3 will be running the software at the same time. The database may contain up to 25.000 records.
I was thinking about .MDF database but I am not sure what exactly they are! My questions about them are:
1) Is it possible to deploy this type of databases to a server so that multi users can use it at the same time(read,edit and add data)?
2) Will it give me high performance if I input about 25.000 records?
Any suggestion about this subject will help a lot.
Thanks in advanced.
.mdf files are Microsoft SQL Server databases.
In other words, they are intended to be put on a server for multiple users, and they are intended to be used with high load.
(for SQL Server, 25.000 records and "more than 3" users is nothing)
Compared to the alternatives you mentioned, you will definitely get the best performance with SQL Server.

I am searching for a open source database option which may work from the ASP .net app folder. (I know its some sort of stand alone) .
Here I am trying to avoid the installation of a database server by utilizing the app folder option at least in the development machines.
I could only find two as of now, one is the access and the second is sql server from visual studio.
Any suggestions in this regard would be appreciated.
There are
SQLite
Firebird
H2 Database
Berkeley DB
Other open source engines that require a db server
MySQL
PostgreSQL
MongoDB
HSQLDB

Folks, is there a tool to format/indent SQL Server queries in query window ?
With Apex SQL Refactor, you can specify your formatting preferences and reformat selected code or the entire window at any time using a keyboard shortcut. There's a free version.
+1 to JackM.
Just add a mention for some other (not free) tools available from Red Gate, depending on exact requirements.
SQL Prompt
SQL Refactor
Might be something you'd be interested in.
Format code in SQL Management Studio
Older question which has much more activity and more answers: SQL Formatter for SQL Management Studio
My contributon to this mess is Poor Man's T-SQL Formatter / http://poorsql.com - free, open-source, does bulk formatting from command-line, SSMS plugin, etc, and (in theory) handles all SQL syntax up to SQL Server 2008 (R2).

Does anybody know about good SQL parser with sources, written in Delphi? I need in parsing SQL commands (with all new features of Firebird 2.5) into object structure.
Read this article for Delphi SQL Parser, it uses IB as database but should not be very different between it and FB.
And there's an open source project called SQL Parser for Delphi but hasn't updated since 2005, but it may give you start up point.
2 other native Delphi SQL parsers:
Zeoslib seems to have an sql parser to parse Interbase, MySQL, Oracle, Postgres, SqLite and Sybase.
General SQL Parser (commercial)
