Yup, you got it. Which brand of single malt? :) Funny one, eh? I don't think this happens with older versions as NOT NULL was not rally handled as a constraint. With 9i it happens as expected of any constraint, it's just that describe doesn't tell us the full story. -- Cheers Nuno Souto wizofoz2k_at_yahoo.com.au.nospam
