Please refer to Oracle's 'paint by numbers' install, try-it-out and deinstall material. It's called Oracle By Example (OBE) and reached through the Oracle TechNet 'Sample Code' page (from http://otn.oracle.com)
Oracle's database is moderately easy to install but the automated de-install is not quite complete and the OBE provides considerable detail in both (as well as tutorials). Received on Fri Aug 01 2003 - 17:43:01 CDT
