I just moved to a company that uses Oracle for almost all their database stuff. Having never used PL/SQL and being used to SQL Server, I'm on a bit of a steep learning curve. Even though I'm a decent T-SQL programmer, there's a bit to pick up, and I need to become productive quickly.
I reckon I need two things ;
A step-by-step introduction book, with real-world worked examples and the like, to get me going and give me the knowledge I need to do the job as quickly as possible, and;
A small reference guide to the PL/SQL language, to have at my desk 24/7 for when I need specific, indexed information on a subject.
Has anyone had any experience with Oracle or PL/SQL literature? Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions guys and gals.
All the dude ever wanted... was his rug back.

Look around at Oracle forums.

By this I am referring to the hottest trend of the industry like SAS, SAP, PeopleSoft, OracleFinancials etc....
assuming experience being equal with these skills..

It also depends on which piece of dirt you're standing on.
But, why even bother with the "hottest trend" in the industry? It'll be something else next month.

Yes especially for those low-level programmers who are doing high-level stuffs.

You'll never be underpaid if you become a guru in network and system security. And I mean the hot sh*t - holy crap we've been hacked, get us somebody to track these guys type of security here.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Click "Start | Run" type mstsc, this will bring up the remote desktop connection. Provide the computer name or IP address and you will get connected to remote machine. Remote machine must have "My Computer (Right Click) | Properties | Remote | Remote Desktop | Allow users to connect remotely to this computer" checked.
Regards,
Paresh.

Does anyone know where we can find a proficiency test for C++. Our HR people are requiring it before we can hire someone. Don't have a choice about this.

Talk them out of it or give them a joke one. These sorts of tests are meaningless. Better to ask them about the last project they were on, why they chose to do it a particular way and what tools did they choose, etc. You know what I mean. Much more effective. Point HR here: Interviewing[^]/

So when he said "Don't have a choice" you thought that meant he had a choice? Your projects must be ..... really fun.

Thanks for your replay.

Do you know any link, book for sample questions, or as study material ?
|

total marks are 1000
u need 70% marks to pass the exam.
there are specific books from microsoft press for the preparation of exams. read out that book.
below are some sample questions.
1.
You are a Web developer for Techno Inc. You create an ASP.NET application that accesses sales and marketing data. The data is stored in a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database on a server named TestK01.The company purchases a factory automation software application. The application is installed on TestK01, where it creates a second instance of SQL Server 2000 named Factory and a
database named FactoryDB. You connect to FactoryDB by using Windows Integrated
authentication.
You want to add a page to your ASP.NET application to display inventory data from FactoryDB. You use a SqlConnection object to connect to the database. You need to create a connection string to FactoryDB in the instance of SQL Server named Factory on TestK01. Which string should you use?
A. “Server=TestK01;Data Source=Factory;
Initial Catalog=FactoryDB;Integrated Security=SSPI”
B. “Server= TestK01;Data Source=Factory;
Database=FactoryDB;Integrated Security=SSP1”
C. “Data Source= TestK01\Factory;Initial Category=Factory;
Integrated Security=SSP1”
D. “Data Source= TestK01\Factory;Database=FactoryDB;
Integrated Security=SSP1”
Answer: D
Explanation:
The Data Source attribute of the connection string contains the name, instance or network address of the instance of SQL Server to which to connect. In this scenario we are to connect to the Factory Instance on TestK01 so we use TestK01\Factory as data source. To specify the database we should either use the Database or the Initial Catalog attribute. Here we use Database=FactoryDB.
2.You are creating an ASP.NET application for Techno Inc's Internet Web site. You want to create a toolbar that will be displayed at the top of each page in the Web site. The toolbar will contain only static HTML code. The toolbar will be used in only your application. You plan to create the toolbar as a reusable component for your application. You need to create the toolbar as quickly as possible.
What should you do?
A. Create a new Web Control Library project.
Create the toolbar within a Web custom control.
B. Add a new Web user control to your ASP.NET project.
Create the toolbar within the Web user control.
C. Add a new Web Form to your ASP.NET project.
Use HTML server controls to design the toolbar within the Web Form and save the Web Form with an .ascx extension.
D. Add a new component class to your ASP.NET project.
Use HTML server controls to design the toolbar within the designer of the component class.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Web user controls enable you to easily define controls as you need them for your applications, using the same programming techniques that you use to write Web Forms pages.
