In one convenient resource, Gary Lewis and Alex Sirota have assembled solutions to the most common problems people encounter when using SQL, SQL*Plus, and PL/SQL to query Oracle databases. Structured around specific questions and including extensive cross-references to related material, this book can be used by query writers of all levels of sophistication. In preparing the book, the authors reviewed over three years of postings made to online Oracle discussion groups. The questions appearing in Oracle SQL are actual questions faced by people doing their jobs.
