Sybex Linux+ Study Guide

Hey,
I am studying for my Linux+. I got the Sybex book because I used them in the early 2000's and liked them. They used to give you a PDF on a CD as well that you could use which was handy if you didn't have your book with you. It was also handy because you could zoom it in (since I wear bifocals now)
They don't offer the PDF any more. Any other good study guides that come as e-book or PDF?

where can I get a study guide ( not practice exam) for *1Z0-450*: Oracle Application Express certified developer exam?I am not aware of any exam focused study guide .... there are a number of books ... some of which are shown at the end of the video whcih may be helpful .... http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/entry/0235 .... though bear in mind at least one has been updated to a 4.0 edition. And there may be some never ones as well. ( I recall, possibly very incorrectly, the PACKT one was promoted exclusively at an earlier incarnation of the video when I first saw it .... but I could have been very very wrong in this and my memory may have failed ). There is the Oracle online documentation as well.

Where to buy the study guide for Oracle Forms Developer 9i or 10g

Hi, I am learning Oracle Forms Developer Build Internet Application. I am comfortable with SQL and PL SQL. I need authenticate Oracle Study Guide for Forms Developer which will help me in learning basics to advance level but I cannot afford the classroom course, it is beyond my pocket capacity. So I would like to know if Oracle sell only the study guides. I inquired at Book Shops in my area but did not get any help.

I just went through Oracle Press and Sybex websites and it seems none of the books available suits my requirement. Not everyone can afford class room training unless it is fully or partially sponsored by their employers. And I don't understand what people learn in just 5 days.All the information you need to learn the products and pass the certification exams is available in the freely available Oracle documentation. Sure, it's nice to have the Oracle University training or exam prep books which is often specifically focused on the topics on the certification exam, rather than having to combine data from a few different manuals. But there the free Oracle documentation is pretty darned complete and you'll likely learn more from working through that documentation than you would from the Oracle University material just because you've got to do the work to put things together.

1Z0-046 Study guide - recommendations?

I am trying to find good and reliable sources for study guides and practice Q & A for exam 1Z0-046 - "Oracle Database 10g: Managing Oracle on Linux Certified Expert".
Normally I use self-test software for this purpose but unfortunately they only seem to provide the more mainstream certifications and upgrades.
Do you guys have any recommendations on alternative suppliers of study guides etc ? A quick search on the internet reveals for example [removed by moderator - know braindump site] which at first glance seems alright.
Another one is [removed by moderator - known braindump site] which also seems like a good choice.
Any recommendations and/or previous experience would be appreciated.
Regards,
V

I have to advise you to check www.certguard.com before you go to any website for certification prep, to check whether a site is legitimate or not.
Both of the websites you mentioned, testking and cert-insider, come up as braindump sites.
The implications are that, by using materials from there, you violate the agreement you make with Oracle when you take the test, and can have your certifications revoked.
I looked on Amazon, and saw that there's a book called Oracle Database 10g Linux Administration. That was the only resource I could find for the test, so probably you will want to delve into Oracle's online documentation to prepare.

1Z0-882 study guide (MySQL 5.6 Developer) - recommendation

Hi
I hope that will help others,,,,,
I found a good study guide for 1Z0-882 (Oracle Certified Professional, MySQL 5.6 Developer)
http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920032274.do

@Matthew Morris
Do you plan to release study guide for 1Z0-882 MySQL 5.6 Developer? I recommend you, because MySQL has much larger user base and that means more $$ for you.
I have a list of definite and potential exams that I plan to write guides for. I am currently working on one for 1Z0-460: Oracle Linux 6 Implementation Essentials and hope to release that in a couple of weeks. Then I have at least one (1Z0-054: Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning), and possibly two (second undetermined) that I want to do before I start on guides for the 12c exams (1Z0-060 and 1Z0-062).
When I saw that 1Z0-882 and 1Z0-883 were in beta, I added them to my list. However, I have no idea when (or if) I'll get to them. I can guarantee that it will not be this year. Next year... who knows. 1Z0-460 was not originally in my near-term list of guides to write. I switched from 1Z0-054 to it because I got an opportunity to take a boot camp for Oracle Linux 6 and decided to write that guide while the information was fresh in my memory. Because I don't have a contract with a publisher to write this book by that date... the actual order of the guides is fluid and gets determined weeks (or even days) in advance rather than months.

More Oracle Database SQL Expert [1Z0-047] study guides in pipeline?

Hi
Are there more study resources (other than official Oracle book and Oracle Certification Prep summary) in pipeline or on market?

Are there more study resources (other than official Oracle book and Oracle Certification Prep summary) in pipeline or on market?The Oracle Press series isn't really 'from' Oracle, but rather is from McGraw Hill, so 'official' is a strong word to use. I know that Oracle provides some materials to the authors, but not the extent or type. There are very few authors/publishers that compete with Oracle Press in writing Oracle certification books. The three tests required for the DBA OCP (SQL, DBA1, DBA2) will normally generate competing books from Sybex and sometimes Packt. Beyond those tests, however, unless Oracle Press writes a certification guide, normally no one else does (and if Oracle Press writes a guide, then especially no one else does). This lack of certification materials for Oracle tests is a large portion of the reason I started writing my guides. Even then, one of the primary reasons why I designed them as a series of study guides rather than full-blown soup-to-nuts manuals is to avoid 'competing' with Oracle Press. I'd lose that fight, so I avoid it.
What I'm getting at (in a very roundabout way), is that I consider it very unlikely that another publisher will come out with a manual for 1Z0-047. The exam has been in production since early 2008 and the Oracle Press book has been out since late 2009. I don't think anyone is writing another one.

Need SCJP study guide for java 5.0 by katherine sierra pdf

I am planning to prepare for SCJP 5.0 , can somebody please send me pdf copy of SCJP Sun Certified Programmer for Java 5 Study Guide by katherine sierra . please mail it to me at [email protected]

Since Sun is unwilling to moderate this forum they should close this certification forum.
Because as I see it they are setting themselves up for liability here as various criminals, thieves and lowlifes like the OP and the last two posters congeal together in a mass of ethicless slime.
There is a well established co-relation between the population seeking certification and copyright infringement and intellectual property theft and this is dealt with appropriately on other forums through moderation.
Since Sun has never and will never moderate these forums they should remove this forum because otherwise it aids and abets these criminals, and I would argue actively condones this morally appalling behaviour.
I would urge readers of this thread to submit feedback on this matter, as I shall also do but additionally I will be sending an email to the marketing department at Sun.

CF Cert Exam Study Guide.

HI, I purchased a Cf exam study guide book last week. Ben Forta's book actually, but when I got it, I noticed it was from 2001..lol I think I will work through most of it, but I wanted to find a current version or something similar. I've searched a little but have yet to find anything. Can anyone recommend any study guides or even websites that are test preps? I figure if I start studying and preparing now, in a year or so I may be ready...lol Thanks in advance!

Ok lets try this again! I replied to both of you guys last night AFTER I logged in, typed up this nice response, clicked "Post Message" and of course it said I needed to log in! So I did again, and viola! my post was gone! Love all the great help here, but please someone fix the bugs!!
lol ok now that I've ranted: Dave thanks for the response and link. I knew Adobe had lost of tutorials, just wasn't sure if any were specific to the CF exam or not. I will definately go through the one you gave me.
@ecobb. Thank you as well. I have seen that site and wondered whether it was worth it or not. $40 isnt all that much money, but just hadn't heard any recommendations for their software, so was a bit hesitant.
As I said, I think I'm more of a physical text book kinda guy. I like to have the pages there in front of me so I can turn back or rework a chapter or two if needed, but I enjoy online tutorials as well. So thanks agian both of you!

Creating study guide

I'm Just beginning to create mobile apps. I need to take a content from an xls file and create a study guide of slides from the content. What's my best path to do this? My first thought is to convert xls to xml. There seems to be many options to import xml.
Any direction would be helpful.

Unlikely that this -- the InDesign Scripting Forum -- is what you were looking for. The "scripting" that is under discussion here is scripting InDesign *itself*, i.e., the scripts move InDesign objects around and have nothing to do with "interactivity". (Or more accurately, while you *can* write an interactive script, it would only work in a running version of InDesign and it would actively modify the InDesign document. Much like a Word macro, if you get my drift.)
You *probably* want something as high-end as an InDesign DPS application (which has a subforum of its own), *or* an "interactive" PDF, which you would create with Acrobat Pro. You can design the DPS App and/or PDF with InDesign (and use scripts to do so) but any and all interactivity need to be added afterwards.
Some people will say, well, you can also create an SWF with Id, but then again some people will say anything. Using InDesign as an SWF-creating application is like using AutoCAD to design a book with: possible but not the recommended usage.
