Hi jesse,

For no 1, Thanks a million, it works fine

For no 2, yes, I saw the sticky bit in the oracle file.
                is it advisable for us to change the oracle file permission
/ to turn off the sticky bit ?
               Would it affect oracle internally ?


Thanks for Sunny too,
I'm also still curious why I can't access v$session from the package ,
any idea ?

Regards
