Leslie, I do not have the book but the STATS$BEGIN... and STATS$END... tables are created by utlbstat.sql The utlestat.sql gathers all the stats, creates the summary tables and formats results into the report.txt file. HTH Suhen Hi everybody, I'm reading Michael R. Ault's Oracle8 DBA: Performance Tuning. On p41 the first paragraph mentions something like: UTLBSTAT creates STAT$BEGIN_... tables and that UTLESTAT creates STAT$END_... tables. I checked the scripts in 8.0.5 and 8.1.5, and found that both STAT$BEGIN_... and STAT$END_... are created by UTLBSTAT. Am I missing something here??? PS. either way it works, but I just don't want to mess up with OCP exam. Thank you. Leslie __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
