I shall say it here as well; I will admit to fault with posting verbatim text from the following link, instead of posting the link itself:

http://www.mail-archive.com/oracle-l@fatcity.com/msg27464.html

I do think it unfair to accuse me of pinching from Metalink when I have no access to the site; my current employer is using a third-party to host and provide patch support to the database servers, and, thus, has no service contract with Oracle directly, meaning I have no CSI number with which to obtain Metalink access. Believe me or not, it is the truth.

I apologise for my indiscretion with regard to posting text, obviously originally from Metalink, which I found elseehere posted in violation of the Metalink agreement. My goal was to assist the OP, nothing more. David Fitzjarrell Received on Tue Feb 01 2005 - 07:20:35 CST
