I would strongly recommend that you purchase Tom Kyte's book "expert one-on-one
Oracle" and read every page. Especially the first three chapters. And that you
pay special attention to all of the ways that Oracle and SQL Server are not the
same.
If you don't get this before anything else you will end up angry, frustrated, and producing really bad code.
