Ryan,

is there at least any online doc about it (F1) ? I haven´t used 9i since yet, but the online help had always been the last anchor - if I did not find something anywhere else, I found it there; it was hard to read, but at least more "complete" than any other source.

... would be really bad if Oracle did not provide the info there, too, of course ...
