Sure !! :) I think the DBA suggested that the Duhveloper reads Chapter 1 from Tom Kyte's book, if not anything else. I volunteered to read it to them using my own copy ;) I would love to do that!!
My boss has read a few chapters from this book (upon my request) and is using his new found Oracle knowledge very well. Helps us a lot that way !! Now he understands what we are dealing with. - Kirti -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 2:13 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L So did you fix it? -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 3:07 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Want to have a good laugh?... read on... I don't think its OT :) A few minutes ago, my co-worker DBA was 'ordered' by one of the Oracle Duhvelopers from our 'preferred vendor' to fix the DUAL table so that the application will get a *specific* Sequence Number for something. DBA: Why do you think DUAL is the problem? Duhveloper: ...'cause I see the PL/SQL code that says 'from dual'. Boy! Are we in trouble or what?? ;) - Kirti -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Deshpande, Kirti INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
