I stand corrected! Us newbies are a sorry lot indeed.
How can I view the debug info generated by DBMS_OUTPUT statements that are
part of Oracle 8i PL/SQL stored procedures that are executing on a Dell
Server with dual 550 Mhz processors and 4GB of memory, running MS Windows
Also, where can I find more detailed info on what specific service
pack/patch level of Oracle 8i I'm running?
