As already been said: My task is to build an application, so I do not have the time to grab hundreds of scripts delivered by oracle (like maybe you)- thats why I in that case use to ask people that know all about oracle (do you?)
Oracle comes along with hundreds of parameters (pctfree ...) but is (in version 9.2i) unable to shrink a blown file, even if you want to call it explicit, isn't it? We talk about the 9th version, and so what, the oracle developers are infallibly?

Is not? Especially the worksheet: All modern editors use code completition, but sorry, I could not find the button for. And what about integretad help? Maybe I should look around agein!

Oh, I did! Half a year after my work I went to a Oracle course and I know, that all I learned is only the peak (and only for 1 version). You are sure, that you know all about Oracle?
