Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: ORA-00911: invalid character
My compatability is set to 9.2.0.0.0.
My v$version is
BANNER
Must I set compatability to 9.2.0.1.0 from 9.2.0.0.0?
The description of 'compatability was "Allows use of new release, while at the same time guaranteeing backward compatibility with earlier release." I thought this meant that all current release features could be used and that backward compatibility was set by what compatability was set to. I this incorrect?
