Missed out earlier some stuff that is done differently.
Sequences/artificial key generation.
bulk ops in PL/SQL.
transaction length - typically shorter than business transaction length in
mssql.
temporary tables - precreate in Oracle, create in sp in sqlserver.
outer joins - if they don't know the ansi syntax or you are prior to 9.2
DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO (ok I just want some developer somewhere to use this).
