If the user already has his information displayed on the screen( retrieve already took place) and his/her machine freezes it is definitely application problem, may be networking problem but not back end problem. Printing problem is not an Oracle problem.
If he/she is retrieving while printing it may be either. But still indications are your programmers didn't write good code. As to your question regarding the session I think it is not an unusual behavior. Check it in couple of minutes. It should be gone.

I have Oracle 7.3.4 running on Windoze NT4.0. I have been trying to determine if I have an application problem or a database problem. I have an application called MP2 that is causing a user to have their PC freeze up when they try to print from the application. I ran a trace on their session to see what is going on. I have not looked at the trace file yet but when I was doing this I noticed that when this person had a session open that I could see with the query

SELECT sid,serial#,osuser from v$session;

That when they re-booted, their original session stayed open on Oracle. Should a re-boot have ended the session. When they logged back in another session opened and the first one stayed open also. Is this normal??

Thanks,

Dave
