The BOL download as well as web access is free via the link David posted.
Hope this helps.

There are no price tags on the link that David provided. Did you actually
go to the link? Did you click on Download? Were you asked for a credit
card?|||About the price - sorry, my mistake.
Also,
I know this online help,
and it seems too massy.
I need just simple help, like old phasion help (*.chm is good enough).
Thanks :)|||The Books Online download IS in CHM format! You'll find the functions
in tsqlref.chm. Do you need someone to come over and help you install
it!

Sorry, no such thing that I know of, SQL Server is much too complex to be
documented by a single .chm file.
Download books online, install it on your machine, and familiarize yourself
with the search and index functionality. If there is only one set of
documentation you will have, this is the one you want. And you can ignore
all the "massy" stuff you don't need.|||> The Books Online download IS in CHM format!
Ah yes, I am stuck in SQL Server 2005 world, where everything is
<guid>.htm...

LOL! I was going to suggest the same thing.|||> Ah yes, I am stuck in SQL Server 2005 world, where everything is

Still trying to get used to that myself. The format change was
inevitable I suppose but I still find the multiple pane layout quite
hard work.
