On Oracle 8.0.6,
is that possible to create a table with a partitioning key on two columns:
1 VARCHAR2 column and 1 DATE column?

If I create
CREATE TABLE sales
(NAME VARCHAR2(10),
DAY DATE,
TEXT VARCHAR2(40))
PARTITION BY RANGE(NAME,MONTH)

PARTITION JOHN_JAN VALUES LESS THAN ('JOHN',TO_DATE('2000-01','YYYY-MM')
PARTITION JOHN_FEB VALUES LESS THAN ('JOHN',TO_DATE('2000-02','YYYY-MM')
PARTITION JACK_JAN VALUES LESS THAN ('JACK',TO_DATE('2000-01','YYYY-MM')

In which partition goes VALUES('JOHN',TO_DATE('2000-02','YYYY-MM')?
