Folks, this is funny. I've been using Oracle for several months, and started teaching myself MySQL since last weekend. I'm currently using the MySQL version 3.23.49
I found something really interesting: In Oracle, I have to create the Foreign Key in order to join 2 tables. It's quite different when I deal with MySQL. I can join two tables without creating the Foreign Key. ----- Is this Normal? Before learning MySQL, I thought both MySQL and Orcle use Structural Query Language, which should be the same. But, now I know I'm wrong. Also, when I insert data to a table in MySQL, the values can be enclosed by single quotes, like 'alan', In Oracle, NO WAY, you have to use double quotes, like "alan". Any suggestions or advice? It seems I really should get a MySQL book. Which one is the best? cheers, feng -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
