RE: What is difference between SQL and SQL*PLUS?...

Hi: SQL is a language defining what you want to do ...when you want to do something ... where do you do what you want to do... in otherwords SQL*PLUS is the "environment" where you can actually type your commands to perform queries and see the results in the same environment itself. correct me if iam wrong |
