The 6.2 version of Oracle was specifically designed for the VAX/VMS or OpenVMS platform and did incorporate OPS. Remember that version 5, yes version 5 had OPS built in.

Thanks Don G for the wonderful accounting practices for the OCP/OCM/OCW. Very much appreciated. Must be how Enron and WorldCom made so much money.

Thank You

No there was never a 6.1 or a 6.2 unless I missed a meeting. The latest version of 6 I worked on was 6.0.37.

There was a 6.1 and/or 6.2? I went from 6.0.36 straight to 7.2.

Ahhhh - but is a system truely "Relational" if they don't support foreign keys?
That did not happen within Oracle-Land until release 7 (maybe it was in 6.2 - I forget).

Anybody remember why there was never a release 6.1 - we went from 6.0 directly to 6.2???

Correct answer gets a virtual beer.

Oracle was the first commercial Realtional Database Management System. And it was relational from day one (version two :), and it was built with relational theory in mind. IBM was the first to implement RDBMS though. It was called System R, or something, later it became known as DB2.

Take a look at this paper:
http://www.mcjones.org/System_R/SQL_Reunion_95/index.html

Very fascinating reading. They tell how Larry was trying to get tle list of DB2 error codes so that Oracle would be compatible with it. Also a bit about Larry luring IBM engeneers promising that they would become millionares with Oracle. He was right.
