OPS$ in Oracle6

I have started to use the OPS$ technique to add users to the ORACLE6 system and have run into a problem. Part of my forms system calls a .sql file to construct another sql file and run it. The username is selected from sys.dual for identification purposes and is passed to the file with the &1 parameter e.g.

'select '||'''&1'''||',

etc.

This was fine until I tried the OPS$username, when all that gets passed is OPS. So far I have failed to get the username passed, or even OPS$username, which would be sufficient for identification. Any help from out there would be gratefully acknowledged ! Received on Tue Dec 14 1993 - 14:44:50 CET
