Greetings, David Portas,
First, thank you for responding to both of my postings - I
appreciate it, and I apologize for not responding earlier.
I have recently purchased: Learning SQL on SQLServer 2005 -
O'Reilly Books, and I was given a SQL2000 Microsoft Library; I'm
finding many
of the things applicable to SQL2005 as well.
I will probably be sent to a SQLServer class in about a year
(ha)...actually, I've found with new technologies, there's nothing like
the "throw-the-DBA-in-the-pool-and-let-her-learn-how-to-swim" - it's
how I learned IMS, CICS, JCL, TSO, UNIX, Oracle and now SQLServer....
Oracle DBA's (especially the ones working on UNIX) are very, very
oriented to writing scripts...I've been using the SQL2005 Enterprise
Studio, but
our PeopleSoft 8.9 Financials system has over 70,000 tables!
Arrrrgh!
However, I did find out about the 'Filter' function in Enterprise
Studio, so it helps in lowering the scope of tables....
I do admit that SQLServer has features superior in some ways to
Oracle; however - Microsoft: Come up with an Export/Import utility (and
I don't mean the Bulk Data Transfer or the select....into!)
Thanks - Y. Attwood ('a_dba_used_to_oracle')
