Hey William,

Why are you 40% OCP - does this mean you are an OCA? When did you take your very first 9i certification exam? If you took it before Sept. 1, 2002, the you're a 50% OCP.

Quoting DENNIS WILLIAMS <DWILLIAMS_at_LIFETOUCH.COM>:


> My instructor in a recent Oracle Education class said that there were a

> logging on". He just grinned.
