What's the best SQL software for writing queries?

TOra looks interesting. And yes, it's an Oracle database. I still like PL/SQL so far.

To be honest, for your first database, Oracle doesn't really make sense. It's simply a gargantuan beast. Oracle runs countries. Something else would make more sense. MySQL is a good choice. Or PostGreSQL. MS SQL Server is good.
It's kind of like going to the firing range to learn how to shoot with strategic nuclear missiles.
Is there a reason why you're using Oracle?

I'm using Oracle because I'm at work. Our IT is apparently overloaded :mad: with work so I have to now get into this stuff. It's not my job, but at least it's something I've always wanted to learn anyway.
Renegade:
Ah. That makes sense then.

TOAD is the one I always used for Oracle. They have a free version (the one I linked) and a non-free one.
