Dear DBAs,

Yes I am referring to the iSQL*Plus tool available in Oracle9i. This is also a topic of OCP 9i Exam-1. Would you please suggest some links where I can get material in detail.

Thanks

Hi all,

Mks is probably referring to the iSQL*Plus tool available in Oracle9i.  This is basically
a web form that allows the user to type sql or sqlplus commands in the top window and
see the results in the bottom window. It is clusser to sql*plus worksheet than the conventional
sql*plus command line or gui.
