Hi Gudrun,
Yes, I had a play today.
The safest route I could determine was to nominate a
drive letter which had the same mapping on client and
server to a server directory. Not ideal.
[Quoted] However, the latest disaster is that UTL_FILE.FOPEN
fails with INVALID_OPERATION exception on the server
when using a drive mapping, even if that drive mapping
has been specified as a utl_file_dir in the init.ora.
I have a call in to support about this.
[Quoted] Also, is there any way to restrict the user to the
directory that they are originally presented with
in the get_file_name function - I can't see any.
Thanks
Steve
