For some reason, Oracle decided to provide interfaces for int params, boolean params, and events, but nothing for string parameters. I know of no way to do it. -Mark Mark J.

I want a way to set TRACEFILE_IDENTIFIER to a string in another session to make it easier to identify trace files. Any ideas?

And that, exactly is the problem. First, when you set event using alter system, the setting is system wide. Second, if you want to inspect a session that is currently executing, you can't. Oradebug is a kludge, but it works. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Mladen Gogala 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).
