Uh Hal,

You should read the books. Dual is a table. And whoever suggested to re-run catalog was not quite correct. Dual is created in the sql.bsq file.

the actual script says:

from sql.bsq ===

create table dual                   /* pl/sql's standard pckg requires dual.

*/
(dummy varchar2(1)) /* note, the optimizer knows sys.dual is single row */
storage (initial 1)
/
insert into dual values('X')
/
create public synonym dual for dual
/
grant select on dual to public with grant option

from sql.bsq ===

there! I did my research for the day! :)

Dual is not a table.

It just a placeholder.
