Have you checked on 'connection qualifiers' in the manual as I suggested in my reply ?
DB1 is the database name and database link name - but I have used HR and SHIP as the connection qualifiers to identify two separate paths to the same database. Note the appearance of two '@' signs when using the qualified database link. select table_name from user_tables@DB1@HR; Regards Jonathan Lewis http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk Coming soon a new one-day tutorial: Cost Based Optimisation (see http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk/tutorial.html ) Next Seminar dates: (see http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk/seminar.html ) ____England______January 21/23 ____USA_(CA, TX)_August The Co-operative Oracle Users' FAQ http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk/faq/ind_faq.html -----Original Message----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 08 January 2003 12:54 global_name Hi Jonathan, thanks for your reply. The deal is that you can't use DB1@HR and DB1@SHIP if you are using global_names=true; the link name has to be the same than the global database name. But what do I do, if I need the same user to have two db-links to different schemas on the remote database? Any idea?
