Microsoft T-SQL v. Oracle 9i SQL

Hi
I'am looking for any materials (e-documents) in subject:
- SQL'99 standard
- differences & similiarities between MS SQL Server and Oracle SQL
Please help me.

For the SQL 99 - you could look at Oracle's SQL Language reference manual (http://docs.oracle.com) which contains a description of the differences between Oracle's SQL dialect and the ANSI standard.
For the T-SQL vs Oracle PL/SQL ... the migration workbench as well as a lot of reading between the lines might help. It's not so much as the two have different dialects as the two require a completely different programming style to accomodate the differences in locking, latching, parameterization, parsing and rollback. Coding for one simply means bad performance in the other ... read Tom Kyte's books (see http://apress.com) to get an understanding of what this means.

    please let me know other books of this series...Just downloading/purchasing the Books is not going to help you learn SQL. You will have to read and practice.
    My take is:
    1. Oracle Documentation -- Download from Here
    2. Effective Oracle by Design by Tom Kyte (Might have to purchase it as its not available for free download).
    Once you read these and practice simultaneously, you would be able to grasp much more than reading all the above 4-5 books mentioned.
    Also, I would say, to read just one of the books at a time than to make a mess by reading all and understanding none.

    Joins are joins ... what do you mean by "nested" joins?
    If you are concerned about outer joins that can be performed using ANSI syntax that are not supported in the classic Oracle syntax then use in-line view and outer join the views.
    If your code was properly formatted it would be possible for someone to read it and possibly see what you are seeing.
    Read the FAQ page and learn to format your posted code.

  • SQL Server Oracle If else differences

    I have a query in SQL Server 2008 that uses an if statement to determine how the SQL is returned. It is fairly complex but here it is in its basic form.
    declare @granularity varchar(20);
    begin
    set @granularity = 'Month';
    if (@granularity = 'Month')
    begin
    select count(*) as DisplayCount, yearstep, monthstep
    from MyTable
    group by yearstep, monthstep
    order by yearstep, monthstep
    end
    else
    if (@granularity = 'Year')
    begin
    select count(*) as DisplayCount, yearstep
    from MyTable
    group by yearstep
    order by yearstep
    end
    end
    Originally I thought the conversion would be as easy as changing the @ to :, adding a then and an end if. Not so....
    Can anyone show what the Oracle equivalent would be?
    Edited by: user497094 on Aug 20, 2010 12:51 PM

    If you use SQL Developer tool, you have a translator to translate T-SQL to Oracle PL/SQL language.
    For your example, you should get:
    BEGIN
    v_granularity := 'Month' ;
    IF ( v_granularity = 'Month' ) THEN
    BEGIN
    SELECT COUNT(*) DisplayCount,
    yearstep,
    monthstep
    FROM MyTable
    GROUP BY yearstep,monthstep
    ORDER BY yearstep,
    monthstep;
    END;
    ELSE
    IF ( v_granularity = 'Year' ) THEN
    BEGIN
    SELECT COUNT(*) DisplayCount,
    yearstep
    FROM MyTable
    GROUP BY yearstep
    ORDER BY yearstep;
    END;
    END IF;
    END IF;
    END;
    I hope it helps youi

    Does Oracle support T-SQL ? Why would Oracle support a proprietary macro-based language implementation from a competitor?
    If it is not supported in Oracle, what is the major grammer difference between T-SQL and Oracle supported SQL ? Oracle has two languages. SQL. PL/SQL.
    PL/SQL is formal declarative procedural language with object orientation programming features. It is based on the Ada language (close relative of the Pascal language).
    SQL is fully integrated with PL/SQL. Which means that you can write and mix SQL source code with PL/SQL source code and the PL/SQL compiler will figure out which is which and where to make calls to the SQL engine for executing SQL code.
    Is there any efficient way for programmer to complete T-SQL transition to Oracle SQL ? Yes. Unfortunately not the answer that you are likely hoping for.
    Forget EVERYTHING you did with T-SQL.
    There is no real comparison between the two. And not only many differences, but some fundamental and conceptual differences too.

  • Using a SQL for Oracle in Microsoft Excel Query

    Note: I also tried creating this query in Microsoft Query (the simple way) and when I first create it...it works...But then if I go back in to edit the query, and refresh the query or try to Return data to Excel, it gives me a ORA-00936 error message.
    Why it works when I first create the query in Excel, I don't know. But I have to validate the queries I'm creating (SQL or not) and I can't validate it if every time I go into edit the query (which may have to happen; that's why I have to fix this before I can submit my validation).
    Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Okay, I know I'm replying to my own threads here...but I want to add a little bit more information again.
    I was successful in figuring out that changing the :criteria to a ? worked.
    I tested this on 1 criteria at a time. Adding one more scenario ? at at time.
    It only worked up until about 3 scenarios of each criteria.
    Then when I refreshed the query in Microsoft Excel Query, I got an "out of memory" error, and then it ended up just erasing the SQL I had been using.
    Here's the SQL I had where it gave me this error. Am I possibly just making Excel work too hard? It just doesn't make sense because Toad for Oracle handled it in like 4 seconds. Which brings me back to an intial question I had. Can Excel use Toad for Oracle somehow?
    Here's the code:

    now i am using oracle 8i...Not so from the code you posted. Didn't I see "jdbc:odbc:..." in your first post?
    so what should i

    Connection
    con=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@loc

    What should i write in place of ?????????..The name of the database you wish to connect to, of course.
    Do you have your tnsnames.ora set up properly? Did you install this database?
    None of this has ANYTHING to do with the error you posted, of course. Fix that first and then worry about the thin driver. At least it appears that the code you posted managed to connect to the database.

    Here test is my sid name....highly unlikely, as that's not an ODBC driver nor is it an ODBC DSN.

    can ne one help me out plz???

    hi
    dbgen is your project name? it should be the dsn name that has to be mentioned. Go to control panel->administrative tools>data sources and add the type of driver required.
    import java.sql.*;
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.*;
    public class TestThinDSApp {
      public static void main(String args[]) throws ClassNotFoundException,
          SQLException {
        // These settings are typically configured in JNDI
        // so they a implementation specific
        OracleDataSource ds = new OracleDataSource();
        ds.setDriverType("thin");
        ds.setServerName("dssw2k01");
        ds.setPortNumber(1521);
        ds.setDatabaseName("orcl"); // sid
        ds.setUser("scott");
        ds.setPassword("tiger");
        Connection conn = ds.getConnection();
        Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
        ResultSet rset = stmt
            .executeQuery("select 'Hello Thin driver data source tester '||"
                + "initcap(USER)||'!' result from dual");
        if (rset.next())
          System.out.println(rset.getString(1));
        rset.close();
        stmt.close();
        conn.close();
    }Hope this helps to some extent..

  • Oracle PL/SQL and Microsoft Access..

    Does anyone know of a good tutorial on how to write the correct syntax for Oracle PL/SQL in an Access pass-through query?

    Do you want to write PL/SQL via Access, or just pass a SQL string as a query? There are many books on PL/SQL if that is what you need, however, I suspect it is not.
    Oracle SQL is pretty standard, except that for versions up to and including 8.x, it only accepts joins listed in the "WHERE" clause. Access itself will accept this syntax for inner joins. Most general SQL books seem to include a section on Oracle and T-sql variations.
    SELECT a.field_1, b.field_2
    FROM table_1 a, table_2 b
    WHERE a.field_x = b.field_y ;
    BUT if field_x is a CHAR field containing trailing spaces (CHAR(6) value is 'ABC ') and field_y is a VARCHAR2 field (value is 'ABC'), then the join condition should be:
    WHERE TRIM(a.field_x) = b.field_y ;
    for outer joins you add "(+)" to the field that may be blank
    SELECT a.field_1, b.field_2
    FROM table_1 a, table_2 b
    WHERE a.field_x = b.field_y(+) ;
    (Access) MID([field_1],2,5] becomes (Oracle) SUBSTR(field_1,2,5)
