Re: flushing the shared pool...

Sometimes it is an Ora 6502 which erroneously reports itself as an invalid data type in a paramter pass. You can ususally beat this one by increasing your shared pool size. I think shared pool memory gets fragmented and a package that is trying to load doesn't quit get what it needs.
