I'm pulling large amounts of data (into MS SQL) from Oracle via OPENQUERY.

I'd like to make sure that my query syntax is well optimised for Oracle.

Any recommendations for good Oracle Forums? - I'm looking for somewhere where the locals are friendly, and knowledgeable, and I won't get my head bitten off for being completely "Stoopid" ?

Somewhere just like SQL Team in fact but providing sustainable to Oracle regulars ...

Thanks.

www.dbforums.com has an Oracle forum. Many of the same people who post here also post on dbforums.

there's also #oraclehelp tag on twitter that might come in handy.
the #sqlhelp tag for sql server sure is busy.

I see that whole Yak Corral thread including its many children is still running.

I kind of liked it when it was one thread, but I guess it does get a little unmanageable after a few million posts.

It's still great way to waste a few hours or days. It’s like panning for gold; sift through lots of sand to find an occasional nugget.
