- A asked: Can this course be purchased as CD-ROM self-study to be completed on my own. If yes, what are the system requirements and total price for the CD-R Package? Thanks.
- N asked: Recursive joins in PL/SQL
- D asked: RESPECTED SIR, I WANT TO KNOW DETAILS ABOUT SQL STATEMENTS USED IN DB. IN CREATE TABLE STATEMENT WHAT IS THE DIFFERNCE BETWEEN ROW LEVEL AND TABLE LEVEL CONSTRAINTS. ACTUALLY WHAT IS THE DIFFERNCE ie.INTERNALLY HAPPENING. CAN YOU PLEASE SEND ME THE DETAILS THROUGH E-MAIL. YOURS FAITHFULLY DEN GEORGE
