Hi Howard,

personal Oracle is available either as a perpetual license (i.e one time payment) or a term license. For a 1 year term its a very low price, £50 or so. You do not get a metalink account for that though. to get metalink access you also have to also buy a support license, its 22% or 15% of the perpetual license. the lower being patches only the upper % being proper metalink access, upgrades etc. Again for personal Oracle its about £50 per year for the latter.

So to get a full version of Oracle including add ons such as label security its quite a reasonable price per year about £100 including metalink access.

hth

kind regards

Pete

Well, there you go. Thanks, Pete.

So to Calvin: now you know, and it's not going to break the bank.
And to Ron: now you know, so please stop telling people not to pay for the
software they use, and to get their 'metalink accessing friends' to break
*their* support agreements.

Regards
HJR
