Jerry,

Not true.  With the right permisssions it is defintely possible to rename
someone else's objects.  Connect as system and try to rename scottt's
tables - definitely possible.  I just tried it against Oracle 8.1.7.4, and
we actually used it during some migrations to a production environment only
a month ago.

Regards,
      Mark.

PS:  No schema for the second name though - that would be changing the
actual owner, not just renaming.  Putting the owner in (even if it's the
same owner) will cause an error to be raised.

Eric,


No schemas allowed. Take out both of the scott.  You need to be logged in
as Scott to rename Scott's tables.
