Naaah, I'm just the proverbial lazy DBA. Gene received many replies, including "it can't be done". Since he happened to point out that two of them worked and produced the same results (an excellent sanity check), I thought it would benefit everyone by telling us which ones worked. I realize that we could have each tried each of the strategies and discovered the two for ourselves, but my principle is if there is an easier way, why not? Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

Or is there a *third* list, one "on topic", a second "off topic", and a third where all the answers really are? -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 10:55 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Gene - Now that you've gotten your answer, would you mind to post both of the methods that you found to work so that the rest of us could learn?
