There are a number of different ways in which you can connect to the server. I'll select a user name and password to enter. This is how to make a connection, and open the Connection window. I'm going to push the Connection button first of all. So let's first make a connection to the server. And you see here the main menu and the toolbar, with a number of buttons and various slide-out windows, which I'll talk about later on. And then I'll close out with where you can find more information about Toad for Oracle, both inside of Toad and outside. I'll then show you about the different editions that are available with Toad, so that will help you identify which of the editions that suit the role that you're in. I'll show you how to configure Toad by selecting the most appropriate options for you, as well as how to customize the user interface so you can change the look and feel. Then I'll go through some of the key features and functions, some of the main windows, such the Schema Browser and the Editor. So first I'm going to show you how to log onto the Oracle server using Toad. So when you finish watching this, one please choose one or both of those to follow up with.

There are two other videos which accompany this one, both of which are more advanced, one for developers and one for DBAs. And I'll be going through the basic features and functions of the product. In this short video I'll help you get started with Toad for Oracle.
