No sarcasm. Just a pointed way of asking the question. You are reading too much into the response.

In my case, this is an attempt to understand what you have developed. And what makes it different or better than something that is native in Oracle.

Both Daniel and I have seen a lot of developers duplicate stuff that is in Oracle. The reasons could be because the developer did not understand Oracle or did not read the documentation or had a better idea. If the last, then we (the group) are usually interested.

I specifically asked whether this duplicates or enhances External Table experience. (I also asked: if this is an enhancement, please let us know in cdo.marketplace as some of us use that as a searchable archive of tools and utilities.) That allows you to demonstrate the added value - or to demonstrate that you do not know/understand External Tables. Received on Fri Jul 02 2004 - 08:58:19 CDT
