Hi all.

Having never used Microsoft SQL Server before, I'm after a kind of unbiased list of differences between Oracle and SQL Server approaches to the SQL92 standard. I've done several Google searches but am having trouble finding what I thought would have been a fairly common query.

Basically what I'm after is a list of things like:

Concatenation:

Oracle      SQL Server
||          +

Left Outer Joins
Oracle      SQL Server
(+)=        LEFT OUTER JOIN

Anyone able to point me toward a reasonably definitive on-line source of things like that?

Many thanks...
