Happy Friday Fellow Listers!

This is some what of a repeat to my last post WRT creating a new "global" function.
I have successfully created a new function that is available from SQL*Plus.
However we don't allow most folks here to use SQL*Plus, but provide them with
Oracle Browser to run their ad-hoc queries against the database. Some how/way
Browser "knows" about the Oracle supplied functions (such as RTRIM, MAX, etc.).
AFAIK the SQL Functions are not "real database objects". I have been unable
to find them within DBA_OBJECTS. They seem to be "intrinsic" to the database.

My desire/question is how can I add my newly written function to the list of
functions that Browser will allow folks to use within this utility.

TIA & HAND!
