FOR VIEWING
DATA IN THE
TABLE
: - Once data has
been inserted into
a table, the next
most logical
operation would
be to view what
has been inserted.
The SELECT SQL
verb is used to
achieve this. The
SELECT
command is used
to retrieve rows
selected from one
or more tables.
 
Syntax
:-
 SELECT * FROM
<table name>;
 
If we want to see all
the tables that are
already exist in the
database .we use
SELECT * FROM
TAB;
Example:-
SQL> select * from
student; NAME
ROLL_NO CLASS
ADDRESS
-----------------------
---------- ------------
---------- Prabhat 06
BCA Hatlimore
Kishore 01 BCA
Nagri Amarjeet 30
BCA airwan Vinay
08 BCA barnoti 1
row created.
When we use the
command
SELECT* FRM
TAB;
 the output is
displayed as:-
SQL> select * from
tab;

duplicate rows in
such a case, only
unique rows the

be used.

name 1>,<column

column 1 and
column 2.

: - Oracle allows
data from a table
to be viewed in
sorted order. The
rows retrieve from
the table will be
sorted either in
ascending or
descending order
depending on the
condition specified
in the select
sentence.
Syntax
: - SELECT *
FROM
<tablename>ORDE
R BY<column
name1>,<column
name 2> <[sort
order]>;
Example
:-
SQL> SELECT *
FROM STUDENT
ORDER BY name;
