I am new to Oracle.

For a project at my work we need to model our system. The system will
be developped with an Oracle (9i, 10) database.

Now I want to create a personal oracle database on my personal
computer (XP home SP3).

But I don't know how. I am new as I said.

what I want:

create an oracle database
Use Toad for Oracle to access it and create some SQL queries for our
design.

What do I need to create the oracle database?

Best regards

Maxim Demenko

Download Oracle XE and run the installer.

Hi

Any of the above suggestions will work. If you installed Oracle
without selecting the option to create a database during installation,
or need to install another one, you need to run the DBCA. It should
be under Configuration and Migration Tools in the Oracle Program
group. Look for Database Configuration Assistant. It lets you
create, configure, delete and manage databases. If you don't see that
look for a file called dbca.bat. It will be in the bin directory of
Oracle HOME It will launch the assistant.
