I presume you are talking about a DataTable rather than one in SQL Server.

foreach(DataRow row in myDataTable.Rows)
{
    // Do what you need to here.
}

If you use Server Authentification use the name of your computer ,the user "sa" and the password that you set to sql server during the installation.

It is the name of the machine, or "(local)" for the server on the machine you are using. If you installed a named instance (something you would have to do explicitly) then you will have to add /InstanceName after the machine name.

No, not "local". You need "(local)" with the brackets.

Are you trying to connect to a SQL Server running on a separate machine?

If so you have to enable TCP/IP on the server. Use the SQL Server Configuration Manager

Depends.

If it's installed on your local machine with Windows Authentication:

Server = localhost - or if you're using Sql Server Express localhost\SqlExpress or if you named an instance during installation SqlExpress\TheNameYouChose (or just uninstall and do it again properly).

If you installed it locally, but used mixed mode authentication:

user name = sa
password = whatever you set it to be.

If you installed it on a networked machine:

I can't help you here.

You can connect to your local server by using "." Just type the "." in the name field and then login using credentials either "windows" or SQL.

Hope this helps.
Thanks!

Oracle learning?

I jsut 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 learning curve. Even though I'm a decent T-SQL programmer, there's a bit to pick up, and I need to be 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?

All the dude ever wanted... was his rug back.

I presume he means a query that in its entirity is SELECT 1

It is, after all, a valid query. (By that I mean that SQL Server will process it and produce a result set from it)
