I have to concur with that.  Still, if you're out for self training, there
are two particular books which I've found really useful in the past:

o
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sybase-ASE-12-5-Performance-Tuning/dp/1556229089/sr=8-1/qid=1170422400/ref=sr_1_1/203-5171151-3805523?ie=UTF8&s=books

o The other I can't find atm.  It's like a pocket book.  That said, any
quick and accessible tsql reference should do.

I've also seen live code using SybPerl, so you might want to check this
out.
