Re: Convert MS-Access 2 joined queries to Oracle SQL?

If you want to work in Oracle you must learn Oracle. You can not just throw Microsoft's version of SQL at it and expect it to work.

The "INNER JOIN" syntax was not added to Oracle until version 9i. In Oracle the syntax for joining is to join in the WHERE clause. For example:

SELECT a.field1, b.field2
FROM table1 a, table2 b
WHERE a.field1 = b.field7;
