Hi Uwe, I also did not find any reference in the docs. As far as I remember, it does not work as well as the INIT.ORA counterpart - for example, I could nest the IFILE= only once in TNSNAMES.ORA (and the docs says you can have three levels in INIT.ORA).

Hi Norman, ok, that was the section of the docs that I found as well. But in my eyes it is only about the database init params, not about the networking params. Maybe I'm picky, but in my opinion this parameter should be documented in the networking docs as well (like http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14212/toc.htm), because in this context it's not exactly an "init parameter". Thus, I am still worried if I could recommend the use of this feature to customers (means: not documented --> maybe gone tomorrow, even though it works today). Well, I'll probably change my ER to a "don't deprecate this"-request and a "please document this"-request, then. :-) However: I've learnt something today - thanks to you, folks! Kind regards, Uwe
