In addition to the comments of others, note that both Microsoft and Oracle provide free drivers for Oracle databases. I generally find Oracle's drivers to perform better than Microsoft's. Subscribe to Oracle's technet service; it's free and gives you access to their online documentation and KBase.

You may run into problems with Microsoft examples in Oracle, due to differences in T-SQL and PL/SQL. Oracle provides some nice examples that are correct for their version of SQL. Received on Wed Mar 19 2003 - 13:08:30 CET
