I'm looking to do some on-the-fly reports for our Oracle database 
tables.  To begin, I have two questions.

1 - I can query for a list of tables by doing "select * from cat", 
though I picked up this code and don't know what cat stands for.  Is 
there a way to eliminate Sequences from the list of tables it returns 
either during the query or at the time that I make my drop-down in CF?
I also tried "SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM ALL_TABLES" but that returns 
even more tables though I'm not sure why.

2 - Once I retrieve a list of field names, is there a way to check 
the type of each one?
