Well, if I understand your question...the application is a PL/SQL procedure that generates HTML to display an HTML form for input of time. I have drop down lists that I populate with a cursor and blank form input fields to input hours each day. Then there is a comments field at the end of each line.

The procedures run from a UNIX environment.

The boss wants us to use the OWA_SEC package...

This is not the only package I want to learn about so I may increase my knowledge but I figured it was a good start since I am being requested to implement, etc...
