Course Overview

This course is the second in a three-part Oracle series that is based on the ILT course Introduction to Oracle: SQL and PL/SQL. This course describes how to access data from more than one table using joins and aggregating data using group functions. This course also describes how to embed a SQL statement in a clause of another SQL statement to enhance the power of SQL queries. In addition, how to use SQL*Plus commands to build on basic SQL statements and create customized queries that retrieve the information and display it in a format specified by the user will be covered.

Learn To:

  • Retrieve rows from multiple tables by using an equijoin, a non-equijoin, an outer join, and a self join.
  • Write SQL statements that contain common group functions.
  • Restrict groups of rows retrieved by using the HAVING clause and to write SQL statements that contain common group functions.
  • Group rows retrieved by using the GROUP BY clause.
  • Write single-row, multiple row, multiple-column subqueries.
  • Obtain values at run time by creating and maintaining substitution variables.
  • Use SQL*Plus format commands to format report output.
