Abstract

Oracle is an extremely powerful and flexible relational database system (RDBMS), it provides various tools for application development and for performing administrative functions, such as SQL*Plus, PL/SQL, Net8, Developer/2000, Designer/2000 and so on. This project mainly covers a brief introduction to Oracle Form 45 and Report 25, which are parts of the Developer/2000 suite of development tools. These products can all be used individually or as an integrated application development platform. Although each has a separate purpose, there are many similarities that enable one to create consistent and powerful applications. Oracle Forms is a powerful application-development tool for building client/Server database applications, that are portable to a variety of GUI and character mode platform. The another Developer/2000 tool called Oracle Reports allows the developer to create sophisticated reports in a variety of layouts and contains many customization features. Oracle Developer/2000 tools are optimized to take compile advantage of powerful features in the oracle server. The another part of this project is an example application named Conference Management System implemented using Oracle Database Management System. The interfaces were built with Oracle Forms and Reports. It designed to be a complete solution for a conference management and easy to use. It demonstrates a prototype for an application coded using Oracle Developer/2000 and PL/SQL. It runs on Oracle7 server release 7.3.2.3.0, SQL*Plus release 3.3.2.0.0 and PL/SQL 2.3.2.3.0.
