We have been through all CPU patches as well as the 9.2.0.1 -> 9.2.0.4 -> 9.2.0.5 -> 9.2.0.7 path. I have had some issues where I found bugs while we were testing and Golden Gate is dedicated to getting customers back up and running quickly. They have provided one-off patches to fix immediate issues and have also followed up to get us to upgrade once the one-off fix was incorporated into one of their major releases. -- Dave Mann www.brainio.us www.ba6.us - Database Stuff - http://www.ba6.us/?feed=rss2 -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
