I am not used to Oracle, sorry. I need the client tool to access someone else's server for testing some SELECT statements I'm writing for them. I went to:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/sql_plus/index.html
and I downloaded the "SQL Plus Instant Client". I just want a free client because I don't own the Oracle license. I downloaded it, but there are just DLLs and 2 JAR files. I don't see any SETUP.EXE file to start the install. What am I missing? How do I get a free Oracle client installed, if possible, so I can test some SQL statements.
You do something you may be unfamiliar with since you aren't used to
Oracle: You READ the documentation.
But to flesh this out a bit more ... how are you going to connect to the
server? The web? TCP/IP? Through a firewall? What version? Your post is
dangerously short of information that might affect the answer.
Whoever owns the server you are connecting to ... BTW with Oracle you
don't connect to servers ... should be able to get you a copy of SQL*Plus. Alternatively you might be able to use the free download of
SQL*Developer available at http://otn.oracle.com. Hard to tell.
