Yep, I agree. Actually, the poster of the original question, having received the benefit of a number of replies should post a summary back if only to keep karma balanced.

I am working on the non-DBA FAQ, among other things, so if you DO get a decent solution to a problem - please mail me (together with the names of those who contributed to the solution) and I'll incorporate it into the next rev of the FAQ.

Currently there are 3 FAQs floating around on this newsgroup DBA FAQ - Kevin Lomey (?) as SCOTT/TIGER

        I reposted this recently but he is flat out at the moment Oraperl FAQ - Kevin Stock

        I posted this recently
non-DBA FAQ (me)

	Posted v0.2 recently, waiting for a bit more feedback before I
	release 0.3, but thanks to those who HAVE given me some feedback.
	Eventually this FAQ will split into separate FAQ's for different
	products and interfaces, and hopefully I will be able to devolve
	responsibility.

Regards to u all
