what is the difference if any between char(1) or varchar2(1).......what is the rule of thumb on this one?. also, i am using jdbc to get schemas for databases....works fine under mssql and sybase but i am having a rough time under oracle......trying to get the foreignkeys, index info, primary keys, etc. does anyone have any snippet code of how to accomplish this using oracle jdbc drivers using java code (obviusly)....i can get some of the metadata per se....but just not the keys and indexes. any help would greatly be appreciated.

thanks,
