about 4 years ago I I was working on a temp job using oracle and PL/SQL. Well actually, I was working as a consultant instructing gov't employees on how to use a client software to enter data into the oracle database. While there I studied oracle and PL/SQL through a free CBT. I took a SQL certification exam and passed it. I didn't pursue any of the Oracle exams. too expensive and I couldn't find a job using it so I forgot about it. But anyway, what is the difference between PL/SQL and SQL server. I know, or knew, PL/SQL, but I didn't know or have experience in SQL server and thus it always seemed intimidating.
 
Firstly, I would say that
- Like Microsoft's Transact-SQL (T-SQL)is to SQL server , So is PL/SQL to Oracle.

So basically, PL/SQL is a language for Oracle , If you are asking if there is any difference between PL/SQL and T-SQL then , I would say, yes, there are vast differences.
