Hello everybody!!!

I just want to ask some internet sites where I can download Oracle server like mysql and sql server because I want to learn about how to use it.

I have already knowledge about sql and mysql and how to access them using vb.net, and for more improvement I also want to learn how to access oracle database using vb.net but my problem is I can't find site to where I can download Oracle.

I hope you can help me with this problem....

YOUR HELP IS HIGHLY APPRECIATED....

Thank you...

Had you done any searching at all you'd have found it quite easily as it's available (for development and testing work, NOT for production use) from Oracle themselves.
Right there on their website is a big red block saying "Featured downloads", one of which is the latest database server, and another of which is the previous version.

I'll leave it up to you to find the site, which is almost certainly the very first one that any search engine would come up with, and should be the first one you try before you even think of using a search engine.

For Oracle 10g Express Edition;
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sof...xewinsoft.html
Download "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (Universal) or (Western European)".
Note: You have to create an account for permission. Easy and simple one.
Also Download Oracle SQL Developer from http://www.oracle.com/technology/sof...sql/index.html for GUI.

For MySQL;
http://www.en.wampserver.com/download.php
Download Wampserver 2.0 in the page.

After all, there are a lot of information how to do simple things with Wampserver and Oracle 10g.

Not: I am a new user of Oracle since 2 weeks. I am still learning how to use it.

Good luck.

You can easily downlaod that from Oracle site.

Also, these are connecstion strings for you.
