    I'll going to try out mysql just for learning. How does simple SQL and DDL compare with say Oracle's SQL (which I'm familar with) in 8 or 9i, ie is similar? I'm planning to install under RH8 and do some local queries on a test db.

    Are you aware of the fact that MySQL doesn't support stored procedures... thus you will have to do logic in php, c, tcl or something...

    Maybe Postgresql is more along your alley if you are an Oracle kid.

    Ok but MySQL will support tables, views, triggers, indices? Basically that's all I want in this case. Thanks.

    Thank you for that dahamsta. That's great. I think I'll try Postgresql 7.3.2 in the meantime.
