I have downloaded Oracle 9i but have no idea

[prakashnakka]

Pardon my ignorance, I am very new to Oracle. I have had experience with MS-Access that is the only database tool I know. I am interested in learning Oracle. So a while back I downloaded Oracle 9i from the Oracle website. The installation almost crashed my laptop but finally I got it on. Then I started learning SQL.

I am not sure what download did I use. If I want to create a database does Oracle have visual tools to create the front-end. How do I go about designing a full fledged application in Oracle?

Also can anyone post some names of good books on Oracle.

Thanks in advance.

In couple of days we will be putting the step by step instructions on the installation of Oracle 10g.

Thanks,
