Hi everyone: I understand that there is a gather_stat job that runs automatically in Oracle 10 (unless it is turned off manually). I don't believe it has been turned off in our environment, but when I select * from dba_jobs I don't see anything. Am I looking at an incorrect view? Where do I need to look in order to see that job? thank you Gene Gurevich -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
