Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Weird Table Name in Oracle 7.3.4
One of our users has managed to create a table name as follows:
q198.jan.98
This is how it shows when querying dba_tables. Note that it is in lower case and contains periods.
How was the user able to do this? I am not able to describe it in SQL*Plus or even attempt to remove the offending table. I am thinking of directly changing the data in the data dictionary so that I can remove this table but would rather not.
