I did that also, and contacted the metalink administrators and =
complained about it, got an analyst and walked back through the whole =
thing. You get decoyed after you've already entered a lot of data.  =
Hopefully, they'll fix it.  To me, they always seem to produce good =
results in that search context vs what you come up with when you try to =
find your problem description or symptoms through the search page.  I've =
never been very satisfied with their search functionality. It seems they =
spend a lot of analyst time referring you to documents that could not be =
identified in an automated way through the search engine.  I know going =
in that I'm going to have to strain my brain trying to think of way to =
describe my issue that is going to return some useful results. If things =
were working right Metalink ought to be my first choice to find =
information on Oracle.  Instead, I start googling elsewhere and only go =
there if nothing pops up on the web.=20

I was 2/3 of the way to creating a TAR... Metalink suggested I go see a =
page
that shows how to generate a statspack report... And it brought it up in =
the
same browser I had my TAR in.  I lost the whole TAR and now have to =
start
all over again.

I am not clicking on any of these suggested links anymore!
