Subject: Date format element rule change
Would any of you who have convenient access to pre-9i
databases be willing to test something for me? It used to be
possible to specify a date format element twice in a format
model. For example, in the following the month is specified
twice:
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'Mon (MM) DD, YYYY';
In Oracle9i this is no longer possible. The thing is, I'm
not sure in what version the rules changed. Is the above
possible in 8i? in 8? in 7?
Best regards,
Jonathan Gennick
