To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers.

Oracle error message documentation is available only in HTML. If you have access to the Oracle Database Documentation Library, you can browse the error messages by range. Once you find the specific range, use your browser's "find in page" feature to locate the specific message. When connected to the Internet, you can search for a specific error message using the error message search feature of the Oracle online documentation.</p> <p>Many books in the documentation set use the sample schemas of the seed database, which is installed by default when you install Oracle. Refer to <span class="italic"><a href="http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/lookup?id=COMSC">Oracle Database Sample Schemas</a></span> for information on how these schemas were created and how you can use them yourself.</p> <p>For additional application examples, please visit the Oracle by Examples (OBEs) Application Express page, located on Oracle's Technology Network. The OBEs provide step-by-step examples with screenshots on how to perform various tasks within Application Express.</p> <p><code><a href="http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/obes.html">http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/obes.html</a></code></p> <p>Printed documentation is available for sale in the Oracle Store at</p> <p><code><a href="http://oraclestore.oracle.com/">http://oraclestore.oracle.com/</a></code></p> <p>To download free release notes, installation documentation, white papers, or other collateral, please visit the Oracle Technology Network (OTN).
