Roman,
That is a smart way of doing it. It looks quicker too. I need to google more

Hi All,
I have this file by name '-C' created by mistake. I am unable to delete this.
Any ideas?
[oraapp@greece app]# ls -l
total 457636
-rw-r--r-- 1 oraapp oraapp 435824640 Oct 4 2007 -C
-rw------- 1 oraapp oraapp 32271367 Oct 4 2007 nohup.out
How can i delete the '-C' file?
Thanks,
Vikram
