Wrt to the following comment:
"as Oracle's lack of capability. One can easily create temporary tables
with dynamically created columns in Oracle. One can also be frequently
be reminded that it is bad design that only exists in SQL Server
because of the weaknesses of the underlying architecture and that
Microsoft is working like crazy to overcome it in future versions"
As a SQL Server and Oracle programmer I think the point is that SQL
Server is just so much simpler/intuative. Yes Oracle may have some
super powerful features but they are just so bloody hard to find. It
may excite some people to read though manuals on their weekends but for
those of us who dont live to code Oracle just seems to make things hard
that don't need to be.
