I and a friend have written SQL to big Oracle DB but not much to

mamouth MySQL reference manual and saw there are a bunch of tools
that can be run outside of the interpreter and one has in it's title
query. It seems this software will do a job like the Oracle QUERY. I
have not verified this but hope to do so soon.
If anyone on this list has done serious QUERY with MySQL I would
sure like to know how you did it.

SQL stands for 'Structured Query Language'. We are doing queries all
day long.
Reading between your lines, I would guess that 'QUERY' is an Oracle
utility? Since this is a MySQL list, you might explain to us what
QUERY does in Oracle so we can tell you if there is a MySQL equivalent.

Sorry, I was not thinking. In both MySQL and Oracle you do a Query
using the SQL SELECT-FROM-WHERE-YES-NO and such and come up with the
display of data your boss wants in the report. So your equiped to do a
Query and you need to learn just which SELECT to use.
I need to learn how you send a Query result to a file where it can
incorporated into a document. The charts I'm making need some help too
but they will come as I learn to use MySQL.
