What doesn't make me smile is when two seperate publications by Oracle contridict one another. All the study material I get from Oracle (and outside Oracle) states it's important to set NLS stuff when you create the database because it can't be changed after.

If also mentioned that I could be wrong because I have seen other errors in Oracles OCP exam study material. I was interested to find out about it. Im not going to go through the hassle of creating a database then changing the NLS paramaters before I post a message in the newsgroup. You could politely reply by saying "Yes, Oracle got that wrong in that publication". Thats what I was expecting to hear instead of ego gloating like the above.
