Crystal Reports 9 on Oracle (Chapter 3)

This download is "Chapter 3: Oracle SQL." It covers Oracle SQL basics as they relate to Crystal Reports. A generic knowledge of the SQL SELECT statement is assumed and only Oracle-specific, new to 9i, or otherwise uncommon options are discussed in any detail. New join options available in Oracle9i are also covered. The SELECT list, FROM clause, WHERE clause, ORDER BY clause, and GROUP BY clause are explained, and how they are generated from Crystal Reports is shown. Oracle operators, comparison conditions and aggregation functions are covered, and working with Oracle dates, strings and numbers is described. Commonly-used Oracle-specific functions and pseudo columns are covered, and the use of subqueries will also be discussed.
