Howdy.
Anyone out there have a comparison sheet that would tell a dyed-in-the-wool oracle'er how to function in sybase?

I googled, but did not find what I needed. From the sybase manuals, I can't even figure out how to fire this puppy up. (Apparently they assume you know where to go from the $ sign.)

I'm looking for how to set my environment (I type isql and nothing happens), how to get to the point where I can start/stop database, how to do basic schema queries, etc. It would be extremely helpful if I could compare the sybase commands to what I already know (oracle).

Thanks in advance for any assistance, sympathy, encouragement, etc. :(

(don't know version, probably 12 something (ase?), on solaris 9)
