Yeah! Bind variable peeking is great news. I did actually read the guff, but forgot about that.
Version 8 is looking great on paper, I hope I'll get a chance to play wth it soon. I can kind of appreciate your point about peeking stable functions, however, I would have thought that if it was possible to do for bind variables (which could change many times in a transaction) then it would make even more sense for a stable function which doesn't change for the life of the transaction. No doubt this is an oversimplification the situation. regards Mr Pink _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo!
