    TechOnTheNet has been invaluable in helping me write better SQL expressions for PSQuery and direct SQL. Its well-organized layout makes finding functions and commands quick and easy, more so than any other site I've used.  In fact, I am working on a document to share with the community on all the SQL functions that work in PSQuery Expressions (there are a lot).
     
    The practical examples are straightforward and adaptable to PeopleSoft environments, helping me troubleshoot issues and write efficient queries. The detailed breakdowns of SQL functions have also given me a better understanding of how to use them effectively.
     
    If you're looking for a reliable, user-friendly resource to improve your SQL skills, I highly recommend TechOnTheNet

    Daniel,

    Also, my "go to" ... make sure you choose Oracle/PLSQL as the database (upper left of home screen). Whether using TechOnTheNet or just an internet search, it is important to know that PS Query uses PLSQL.

    Thank you,

    Bob

    I did not know PS Query uses PL/SQL. Good to know.

    Of course, this assumes that you're using Oracle as the database on the backend.  It doesn't use PL/SQL if you've got Microsoft! 😊

     

    Thanks!

    Good point! I had never heard of the PS Query PL/SQL connection until today.

    I had forgotten about that that site, so I am glad you reminded me of it. I totally agree with you. That is a great place to learn about SQL, PLSQL in a pretty straightforward manner.
