OK. I think your reply (or lack of) tells us enough without needing to continue this any more. I just hope the OP won't be put off using COPY by your daft assertions when it may very well do him a good turn in his situation.

I don't really understand the point you're trying to make now and it's obvious enough that its become just a smoke-screen to cover up your lack of a valid argument to the REAL point of the thread.

I would however ask you not to make judgements on my worth or otherwise as an employee based on your perception of my "attitude". That would be as silly as me judging you on the lack of manners that you so frequently display in your replies - and I would never do that!

Will you tell Tom Kyte or shall I that he has a bad attitude, as he continues to discuss the use of COPY with correspondents?
