Re: Process field on v$session

Hi

I must assume you are using some OS from Microsoft, but again I could be wrong.
If you need t interment the content of the process column from v$session on a MS os
the first part before the ':' is the pid this can be found in taskmanager or one of the
nice tools from www.sysinternal.com that produces the best tool for debugging
and thereby understanding the MS os .-)
