Nope, you could do it with any sql based database unless your forms have protection built in. Thankfully our WEB guys did that by accident. Namely when they accept a data value they have certain rules that they apply to all fields, like max length, no unlimited length fields, comment data manipulated via procedures. It's rather easy, but you have to design it that way.

One of the papers was pretty much a step by step tutorial on how to reverse engineer data structures and have your way with a SQL Server database via ASP pages. Both papers were ASP/SQL Server centric. But in my quick reads, I didn't see anything that made me think it would not work against many HTML forms backed by CGI scripts hitting Oracle databases that I've seen. Am I missing something? -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Robert Eskridge INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
