Red Gate offers a free e-book on exactly this :)

I have a column that holds a password..i want to do is simply mask the password with the standard password character (*) or Simply hide...
Thanks in advance....
LOL, This is not possible. You can't modify the way Management Studio shows a table!
However, usually, you don't store passwords in DDBB, but the hash.
See this:

You have to use the Hashing Method,read this article (specific to MySQL)

This is a really broad question but I have had good experiences with both:
BlogDesk - http://www.blogdesk.org/en/index.htm
and
Windows Live Writer - http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8621
Both are free and can be used offline. Do you have any specific requirements for what the software can do?

I choose the search engine for large project. Sunspot I liked, at least from the fact that we no need to run a cron job to reindex the data. But when I saw this http://www.vijedi.net/2010/ruby-full-text-search-performance-thinking-sphinx-vs-sunspot-solr/ I began to doubt.
It depends on user preference, so there's no straightforward answer. Maybe you could go through pros and cons of each one and decide for yourself?

is there any free SQL formatter tool? I am using http://www.sqlinform.com/ for small queries. It is very good. But free version supports only 100 lines. TORA has the feature but it has many issues and I can not customize everything. Any free Eclipse plugins for this?
SQL Developer from Oracle is free, supports multiple databases (not just Oracle), and lets you configure how SQL is formatted.
e-texteditor have a snippet can do this.

Are there any sites which a similar program or web-exam?
The best example I can give is Auto-it's "Auto-it 1,2,3" found here.
This is for an absolute-beginner, myself, so even the simplest questions are going to be helpful.
