• PaulB-TheOneAndOnly (6/11/2010)forget about the differences in between PL/SQL and SQL*Plus - the beauty of SQL Server is that relies on a single, powerfull T-SQL language.

    Excellent point, Paul. I never understood why Oracle chose to separate "SQL" from "PL/SQL".

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
