Please use discussion board if you have any questions, we will help you with more details explanation. If you dont understand and practice in the order we provide it will be difficult for you to learn Oracle. SQL *Plus Commands This week we will be covering the following topics. How to use SQL *Plus for Editing - Edit; List and Change; Input, Append, and Del, Using SQL *Plus to Work with Files - Save; Get and Start; Spool and Using SQL *Plus for Storing Temporary Values. If you have not completed the previous weeks articles, please complete them before you practice this. Restricting and Sorting Data In this week, we will be learning Where and Order By clauses with Logical Operators and Comparison operators. If you haven't completed prior weeks articles, please review them before you read this. 4SQL functions This Week we will be learning "Restricting and Sorting Data" covers the following topics. WHERE Clause - Comparison Operators; Logical Operator; Using the Logical Operator, AND; Using the logical Operator, OR; Using the Logical Operator, NOT; Nesting Logical Operators; Other Comparison Keywords; Using the Keyword, LIKE; Using the Keywords, BETWEEN...AND; Using the Keyword, IN; Using the Keyword, IS NULL ORDER BY Clause - Using the ORDER BY Clause. Working with Multiple Tables This week we will learn Working with multiple Tables which covers : Joins - Inner Join; Using Table Aliases; Outer Join; Self Join; Non-Equi Join Subqueries - Simple Subqueries; Multilevel Subqueries; Correlated Subqueries; Predicates Set Operators - Set Operator Examples. Tables and Constraints In week 6 of our Oracle training course we will be learning about Data types with the differences between different Oracle versions, creating tables, altering tables, droping tables, Integrity constraints supported by Oracle, Inserting records, Modifying the records and deleteting the records. If you can't see the screen shots, please save them on to your hard disk.

7: More Database Objects This week we will be learing about Sequences, Synonyms, Indexes, Views, Data Dictionary View, Controlling Database Objects, GRANT, REVOKE Roles and Privileges. 8: Building PL/SQL Blocks This Week we will be learning about Creating PL/SQL Blocks which includes Declaration Section, Variables, Scope of Variables, Constants Records, Manipulating Data in PL/SQL and Using DML in PL/SQL . 9 : Oracle : PL/SQL Control Structures This tutorial teaches about how to structure flow of control through a PL/SQL program. The control structures of PL/SQL are simple yet powerful. Control structures in PL/SQL can be divided into selection or conditional, iterative and sequential. 10: Oracle : Cursors In this week tutorial 10 as part of Oracle SQL and PL/SQL training explains about the Introduction to Cursors, different types and the Cursors and Loops with sample code and screen shots.
