Thanks, Dutch! At work, we are now using Oracle 9i for our administrative system and I am in love with it... we are soon, possibly in the next week or 2, doing the dreaded upgrade to 10g. I am glad that's not my job, I'm *just* a PL/SQL developer with a little bit of Pro*C thrown in the mix. I only mention this because I saw it in the list you provided of DBs you have connected to with CF.
Have a great weekend!
