Hi all,
Mks is probably referring to the iSQL*Plus tool available in Oracle9i. This is basically a web form that allows the user to type sql or sqlplus commands in the top window and see the results in the bottom window. It is clusser to sql*plus worksheet than the conventional sql*plus command line or gui. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >Mks - "isql" is a Sybase and MS SQL tool, not Oracle.
