Practice Overview
In this practice, you start SQL Developer, create a new database connection, and browse your
HR tables. You also set some SQL Developer preferences.
Unauthorized reproduction or distribution prohibitedฺ Copyright© 2016, Oracle and/or its affiliatesฺ

In some of the practices, there may be exercises that are prefaced with the phrases “If you have
time” or “If you want an extra challenge.” Work on these exercises only if you have completed all
other exercises within the allocated time, and would like an additional challenge to your skills.
Perform the practices slowly and precisely. You can experiment with saving and running
command files. If you have any questions at any time, ask your instructor.

Notes
• All written practices use Oracle SQL Developer as the development environment.
Although it is recommended that you use Oracle SQL Developer, you can also use
SQL*Plus that is available in this course.

on- points before you begin with the practices:
Note the following
n
• Save all your practice files at the following location:
/home/oracle/labs/sql1/labs
• Enter your SQL statements in a SQL Worksheet. To save a script in SQL Developer,
make sure that the required SQL Worksheet is active, and then from the File menu,
select Save As to save your SQL statement as a lab_<lessonno>_<stepno>.sql
script. When you modify an existing script, make sure that you use Save As to save it
with a different file name.
• To run the query, click the Execute Statement icon in the SQL Worksheet. Alternatively,
you can press F9. For DML and DDL statements, use the Run Script icon or press F5.
• After you have executed the query, make sure that you do not enter your next query in
the same worksheet. Open a new worksheet.

Practice 8-1: Using Subqueries to Solve Queries
Overview
In this practice, you write complex queries using nested SELECT statements.
For practice questions, you may want to create the inner query first. Make sure that it runs and

produces the data that you anticipate before you code the outer query.
Tasks
1. The HR department needs a query that prompts the user for an employee’s last name. The
query then displays the last name and hire date of any employee in the same department
as the employee whose name the user supplies (excluding that employee). For example, if
the user enters Zlotkey, find all employees who work with Zlotkey (excluding Zlotkey).

The HR department wants you to create SQL statements to insert, update, and delete employee
data. As a prototype, you use the MY_EMPLOYEE table before giving the statements to the HR
department.
Unauthorized reproduction or distribution prohibitedฺ Copyright© 2016, Oracle and/or its affiliatesฺ

Notes
• For all the DML statements, use the Run Script icon (or press F5) to execute the query.
Thus, you get to see the feedback messages on the Script Output tabbed page. For
SELECT queries, continue to use the Execute Statement icon or press F9 to get the
formatted output on the Results tabbed page.

Chapter 11 - Page 2
Practice 11-1: Introduction to Data Definition Language
Overview
In this practice, you create new tables by using the CREATE TABLE statement. Confirm that the
new table was added to the database. You also learn to set the status of a table as READ ONLY,
and then revert to READ/WRITE. You use the ALTER TABLE command to modify table columns.

Notes
• For all the DDL and DML statements, click the Run Script icon (or press F5) to execute
the query in SQL Developer. Thus, you get to see the feedback messages on the Script
Output tabbed page. For SELECT queries, continue to click the Execute Statement icon
or press F9 to get the formatted output on the Results tabbed page.
• Execute the cleanup_11.sql script from

you want to build the tables, you can execute the commands in the
Online_Book_Store_Create_Table.sql script in SQL Developer. If you want to drop the
tables, you can execute the commands in the Online_Book_Store_Drop_Tables.sql
script in SQL Developer. Then you can execute the commands in the
<<Online_Book_Store_Populate.sql>> script in SQL Developer to create and populate
the tables.
All the three SQL scripts are present in the /home/oracle/labs/sql1/labs folder.
• If you use the Online_Book_Store_Create_Table.sql script to build the tables,
start with step 2.
• If you use the Online_Book_Store_Drop_Tables.sql script to remove the tables,
start with step 1.
• If you use the Online_Book_Store_Populate.sql script to build and populate the
tables, start with step 6.
