Difference between Oracle Database XE and APEX?

I searched, but couldn't seem to find if this question had already been answered.
I just picked up beginning oracle application express by wrox.
I came to oracle and downloaded Oracle Database XE then went to search for apex.
Installed Oracle Database XE ..signing is as system your options appear to be administration, object browser, sql, and utilities.
unlocked the HR sample user account and logged in..it has the same options above, but also application builder.
So, I guess my question is..
1. why does HR have application builder, but system does not?
2. do you need to download and install Apex or is apex already preinstalled using Oracle Database XE?
3. is Apex the same thing as application builder or are they completely different.
Thank you for you answers
Thomas

Oracle 11g XE is the FREE version of the Oracle database product.. APEX is the development product that LIVES in the Oracle database. So if you download the database, you get a copy of APEX to use...
System is NOT a usual user in the database, and in fact you should NOT be using it unless you need to change some settings in the database..
Thank you,

Difference between oracle join syntaxes and ANSI join syntaxes

Yes it is. The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. As you correctly state the ANSI standards weren't around when it was initially designed, so the statement is perfectly correct. ;)Ok, in one sense it may be correct but it is a completely misleading statement. Not sure why you think it's misleading.Because there was no ANSI standard, so making it sound like a design choice The Oracle database wasn't initially designed to be ANSI compliant. would suggest to most readers that there was a standard to be compliant to.
Like saying Ford originally did not design their cars to incorporate safety features such as ABS, seat belts and air bags.
The OP asked "why oracle is having different syntaxes for joins than ANSI syntaxes ?" and the answer is that Oracle wasn't initially designed with ANSI compliance, so it has it's old non-ANSI syntax,As shown above, the old syntax was ANSI compliant at the time and to call it non-ANSI is either incorrect or misleading dependent on your point of view.
and since ANSI syntax became the standard it now supports that. And since ANSI switched to a new standard, Oracle had to implement the new standard as well as the previous ANSI standard would be more accurate in my opinion.
Nothing misleading as far as I'm aware in that.I find the whole discussion about ANSI and Oracle's supposed non-compliance, reads like it was Oracle's choice to deviate from the standards, when it was ANSI's bullheaded decisions to pointlessly change standards that left Oracle and other vendors out of compliance, and that was a decision made solely by ANSI.
This is probably the reason ANSI no longer produces SQL standards, the endless syntax fiddling would eventually have made forward left under outer joins a reality.
