If you choose to upgrade your database from 8.0.5 to 8.1.6, there's a
potential difficulty you need to know about.

If you're not aware of the dictionary corruption problem, be sure you read
the metalink alert (96117.1).  This has something to do with block checking
enabled in 8.1.6   Essentially, you need to analyze all your system tables
to insure no corruption has been introduced.

If you have any problem finding the info on metalink, take a look at the Tim
Gorman's web site (www.evdbt.com).  He has some info about it under
"downloads".
