If you don't mind messing up a datafile, you could copy junk over an index datafile. Then use the index in a query. We had a corrupt index that always generated an ORA-600.

If it's by checking the alert log file, I presume that something such as execute sys.dbms_system.kdswrt(3, 'Errors in file blablah.trc:') execute sys.dbms_system.kdswrt(3, 'ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [9999], [FAKED], [], [], []') should look alarming enough. -- Regards, Stephane Faroult Oriole Software -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Stephane Faroult INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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).
