In my reply to your previous post, I gave the Note number for the April CPU. If you read it, you can follow the link to your Oracle version.

Look at the following:

https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:9307327754783446122::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,360465.1,1,1,1,helvetica

You can see in Table 2, the patch number for 9.2.0.7 on Unix/Linux, which is patch 5049060. Clicking on the link brings us to:

http://updates.oracle.com/ARULink/PatchDetails/process_form?patch_num=5049060

In the Platform pulldown menu, choose your OS....AIX is listed there. You can then download the April CPU.

HTH,
Brian
