Leslie,
The ! (bang) in oracle is the command to execute the next information on = the host machine. In this case you are telling Oracle to ecsape to the = host and run the command "oerr ora 8106" which will give the description = of the Oracle error ORA8106.

Hi,

In one of the listers' email, I saw this:

SQL> !oerr ora 8106
SQL> show error description

but when I execute this in SQL Plus, I got the following:
SQL> !oerr ora 8106
SP2-0042: unknown command beginning "!oerr ora ..." - rest of line ignored.

In which tool can you issue !oerr command. Also are there any other ways to show error description than going through Oracle Documentation? =20

Thank you in advance.

Leslie
