INTERNAL_USE is an keyword (to enable an undocumented feature) in ALTER DATABASE command. THis can be used to convert the database character set if the existing char set (national charset) is the superset of the db charset. You can just run the ALTER Database command to convert the db charset.
Best Regards, K Gopalakrishnan -----Original Message----- Barry Deevey Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 7:09 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L As of yet I'm unsure how the application would be affected if I rename the role - I need to do some investigation. I tried this in Oracle 8 and it worked fine - It just seems to be oracle 9 that doesn't like it. I've also checked v$reserved_words and INTERNAL is not listed, INTERNAL_USE and INTERNAL_CONVERT are. As a test I created roles for INTERNAL_USE and INTERNAL_CONVERT, hoping that it would not allow me to create them, but it did, so I then ran the grant again and it also allowed it. Now I'm really confused!! -----Original Message----- Tim Gorman Sent: 18 November 2003 13:34 To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Barry, Why make life difficult? It's just a role, not a data object referenced by applications (hopefully). Change it's name to something that is not a "reserved word" and move on. There is a list of "reserved words" in the SQL Language reference.
