Hi!
I have installed client only on a client machine when I use DBMS_OUTPUT at
SQL*Plus, it says that it should be declared first.
How to make it available on the client machine?
TIA!

Here's a convincing stat for your architect:
There will be no RBO in a future version of Oracle. That version is
not far away (conjecture is perhaps as early as 10). As often
occurs, this is a case of do what we say, not what we do, since
RBO is still used in the data dictionary tables.
Hi All,
Has anyone using fine grained access have had any
problems such as high Latch waits or high number of
SQL executions?.
We have an OLTP database which uses FGA and have seen
high number of SQL executions to the tune 100 users
logged in and the SQL executions are 3000.
Thanks in advance
Hello Aleem,
I don't think NT will automatically do it for you, but the Database
Administration Assistant can make it a little easier by allowing you to
select OS groups of users and create database accounts for them.
You might also be able to write your own procedure to automate it
somewhat.
It sounds like there is no synonym for DBMS_OUTPUT or the user doesn't
have execute rights ?
Try calling it as SYS.DBMS_OUTPUT
And try GRANT EXECUTE ON SYS.DBMS_OUTPUT to user;

I think that datatype DATE has no info about time zone in v. 8i.
If you want to show time zone you have to read it from your server env
