File organization in Access & Oracle.

by d_hainline . Updated 25 years, 3 months ago

Am I right in believing that files are organized in Access and Oracle as B-trees, and are therefore not necessarily in physical sequential order after updates? (That is, if I add new records whose keys are “in between” others, these records may be held in blocks/pages which are not “in between” those of their predecessors/successors. (Hope this is clear!)
