Okay, I'm working on what feels like 30 new projects all at once and I
WILL be RTFM'ing as soon as I can get more than 5 minutes out of
meetings but....


first:  has anyone heard of any problems with 64-bit Oracle on a
Solaris 64-bit OS?

second (and this one confuses me a bit)... I've been asked if Oracle9i
supports a "variant" datatype -- they are not familiar with oracle but
are familiar with SQL Server and say that there is a datatype called
"variant" there where you can basically overload the column with
whatever datatype you want (string, number, date) and the database
knows what type of data it is storing within the column. They referred
me to C++ and Java, neither of which I know.

Can anyone point in the right direction to start researching this?

Thanks!

Rachel
