Toad is an enormously popular interactive environment tool for Oracle development and administration. It allows developers to build, test, debug, and format their code via an easy-to-use graphical user interface, available in both freeware and commercial versions. Toad makes developers far more productive; using Toad, you'll find that program changes that once took hours can now be completed in minutes. Toad allows developers to browse their database tables, procedures, and object types; use code templates; and show errors. It also simplifies database administration by providing a way for DBAs to graphically browse and change database characteristics.

Updated for Toad Versions 8.0 and 8.5, this pocket book is packed with quick-reference material: Toad feature and menu summaries, shortcut keys, suggested changes to Toad defaults, productivity tips and tricks, and more. The book includes concise discussions of all the basic Toad components: the SQL Editor, Procedure Editor, SQL Modeler, Schema Browser, Project Manager, and Debugger. The second edition includes coverage of new SQL Editor features, improvements in usability, and new tools such as CodeXpert (a robust code analyzer and advisor) and Script Debugger (the only tool available that provides real-time debugging of SQL*Plus scripts). It also provides helpful hints on using Toad to perform database administration and SQL tuning and optimization.

Whether you're a new or experienced Toad user, you'll find this quick reference an indispensable companion to the product and its online help files.

5Developer  Mar 07, 2010
This book is a great book. It covers various flavors of SQL with a main focus on Oracle.
It has been a convenient pocket sized reference for those who are on the move.
What I like most is it covers differences in Postgres, DB2, and MySql, "well as much as one can put in a pocket guide". One word "Helpful"!

4Definitely Not for the Beginner  Feb 12, 2009
Being new to TOAD, when I first glanced at the book without having the TOAD application opened, my eyes glazed over. After I set it aside and picked it up another time but have the TOAD application opened, the book was somewhat easy to follow. Too bad that there isn't a TOAD 101 (book or tutorial) out there.

4Good handy reference for TOAD users  Jan 23, 2008
I don't use this book a lot, but have found it to be worthwhile. It's a good read when riding the bus because I can always pick up a tip or two.

2Just what the name says - A pocket refernce  Nov 10, 2006
Useful - but I would say costs too much for its content.
Anyone can make their own reference book similar to or better than this using TOAD's Help features!

4Toad that was a Prince  Mar 10, 2006
As in most of the O'Reilly pocket paperbacks, this one is a wonderful resource. If you need a quick check of something you don't recall the details, this will probably assist you admirably. It requires you be knowleable of Toad. If you are looking for something to instruct you in the use of Toad, you may want a more substancial book. This one includes some tips and tricks that should prove beneficial to most experienced Toad users. As a quick reference the layout is good and the table of contents makes it easy to find what you need. There is not alot of meat on these bones, but the meat is pretty good. For more in depth explainations you may want to look at the Toad Handbook by Bert Scalzo and Dan Hotka.
