Oh my - time to get your syntax in order - you do not load a database into oracle - Oracle *is* the database. You probably mean schema.

I do not know what version your have, but with the installation, the Database Creation Assistamt asks you whether or not to include the demo schemas. There are several, one of which includes something close to a datawarehouse.

XE does not come with demo schemas, afaik, it has the possibility to load demo applications, which do come with data.

Posting version (and platform) does help in case of more questions. Received on Thu Feb 22 2007 - 08:26:31 CST
