Sure you can, but its kinda tricky... There are .msb files in ORACLE_HOME for different Oracle utilities. I guess oraus.msb is one for ORA msgs. I had changed it such that the number of characters in the message remained same... It worked :)

Does anyone know how to change the message that Oracle displays when an error
occurs. For example:

SQL> select * from fjfjfjfjf;
select * from fjfjfjfjf

*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

I am sure that Oracle Corp. will really frown on this, but can I change "table
or view does not exist" to something else?
