They are. You can get to them if you pay Oracle big bucks or have a back door. It's how Quest/BMC and others can do redo log tools. Alternatively, use the log miner utilities. They are available to everyone and come with the software. Worth a look and might just do what you want? > I know BMC has software that reads these, there *must* be some way they > found out how to figure it out. As I said, it cost them a bundle. -- Cheers Nuno Souto nsouto@optusnet.com.au.nospam
