You could avoid synonyms by creating the views in the users' schemas :-)

Nuno - Good point (as always). My reasons are as follows:

1. The application group has their strategy built around public synonyms.
2. My boss likes public synonyms.
3. As I recall, it was Jonathan Lewis who mentioned that public synonyms
could cause performance problems, and I have passed that along to my boss..
If anyone has a personal horror story to share, that might make an impact..

Sorry to ask the obvious question, but
*why* don't you just use private synonyms?
