Niall, thanks! I also found the discussion on this group from April 2002,
which helped. And after searching google.com for Oracle myth, I'm finding a
wealth of "initially disturbing" information- including discussions from
this group, and webpages like
http://www.quest-pipelines.com/newsletter-v3/0302_F.htm . Strange to see
how even the Oracle docs were wrong...
