Nearly every day Microsoft updates some of its existing articles on its Docs.Microsoft.com documentation website. This article displays excerpts from recently updated articles. Links to new articles might also be listed.
This article is generated by a program that is rerun periodically. Occasionally an excerpt can appear with imperfect formatting, or as markdown from the source article. Images are never displayed here.
Recent updates are reported for the following date range and subject:
- Date range of updates: 2017-12-03 -to- 2018-02-03
- Subject area: SQL Server.
The following links jump to new articles that have been added recently.
This section displays the excerpts of updates gathered from articles that have recently experienced a large update.
The excerpts displayed here appear separated from their proper semantic context. Also, sometimes an excerpt is separated from important markdown syntax that surrounds it in the actual article. Therefore these excerpts are for general guidance only. The excerpts only enable you to know whether your interests warrant taking the time to click and visit the actual article.
For these and other reasons, do not copy code from these excerpts, and do not take as exact truth any text excerpt. Instead, visit the actual article.
This compact list provides links to all the updated articles that are listed in the Excerpts section.

The Help Viewer opens to the Manage Content tab.
-
To install the latest help content package, choose Online under Installation source.
[!NOTE] To install from disk (SQL Server 2014 help), choose Disk under Installation source, and specify the disk location.
The Local store path on the Manage Content tab shows where the content will be installed on the local computer. If you want to change the location, click Move, enter a different folder path in the To field, and then click OK. If the help installation fails after changing the Local store path, close and reopen the Help Viewer, ensure the new location appears in the Local store path, and then try the installation again.
-
Click Add next to each content package (book) that you want to install. To install all SQL Server help content, add all 13 books under SQL Server.
-
Click Update at lower right. The help table of contents on the left automatically updates with the added books.
Note
Not all the top-node titles in the SQL Server table of contents exactly match the names of the corresponding downloadable help books. The TOC titles map to the book names as follows:
| Contents pane | SQL Server book |
|---|---|
| Analysis services language reference | Analysis Services (MDX) language reference |
| Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) reference | Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) reference |
| Data mining extensions (DMX) reference | Data mining extensions (DMX) reference |
| Developer Guides for SQL Server | SQL Server Developer Reference |
| Download SQL Server Management Studio | SQL Server Management Studio |
