Heh...well, I filed one, and I must have gotten the same analyst. He said "I just filed this on Friday. This is the enhancement request number...." He also claimed I'd be able to view it. And I replied that I was unable to view it, and asked him to check if it was publically viewable. So, hopefully, it will soon be publically viewable. I'll post a followup here if I ever get an answer. -Mark -- Mark J.

You mean something like http://tinyurl.com/2fogq9 ? I've spotted many, many other people on asktom asking for the same thing. Is it possible to have a look at the text of your ER ? - don't think it's "public". regards Alberto -- Alberto Dell'Era "dulce bellum inexpertis" -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
