But aren't fixed attributes also attributes? I don't really see where is non-readability in syntax like this: create user x attributes (password = 'y', a = 'a', b = 'b'); alter user x set password = 'yy', a = 'aa', b = 'bb'; Syntax diagram is the same as for UPDATE statement. -- WBR, SD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
