Based on Oracle definition of Named Users below I would have to say in your

clarify.

Thanks folks for your replies on my initial query.  Just to clarify by
example, how many named user licences would I need for a database with
following users.  Forgetting minimum purchase requirements I suspect
it's 3
is this correct?
