To view the tables you have created, you can utilize one of the following methods:

  1. Viewing a table using the SELECT statement allows you to retrieve data from the table and display all rows and columns. For example, to view all data in a table called “employees,” you can execute the following query:
  2. Choose all the employees.
  3. To view the structure of a table, you can use the DESCRIBE statement. This will display information such as column names, data types, and constraints. For example, to view the structure of a table named “employees,” you can execute the following query:
  4. DESC employees; – Describe the employees table.
  5. View tables using Oracle SQL Developer tool.
    Oracle SQL Developer is a free graphical tool that can be used to manage and query Oracle databases. With this tool, you can view tables in the database through the navigation panel. First, connect to the database, then expand the “Tables” node to view all tables. Select the table you want to view, then right-click and select “Open” or “Edit” option to view the data or structure of the table.

Regardless of the method used, you must have sufficient permissions to view the table. If you do not have the necessary permissions or access is restricted, you may need to contact the database administrator to obtain the appropriate permissions.
