RE: Digestive
Glenfiddich is very good, but I vote for Laphroaig from the Isle of Islay. Wanna know what an idiot I am? A couple of years ago, Laphroaig gave away 1 square foot of their distillery if you bought a bottle and filled out all the paperwork. Well, I did it, and am the proud owner of 1 square foot of the Laphroaig distillery! Cheers!

RE: Database Links
Tracy, I have a similar deal going on here. If you are on version 8.1.x and the lookup tables are large, you can use Materialized Views, and since they are lookup tables that shouldn't change much, you should only have to refresh them every once in a while. If they are really small tables, however, you can just use database links. What I do is create a view across a database link on top of the lookup tables. I then create a synonym on the view that is the same as the lookup tables' name. The users, then, have no idea the tables don't exist locally.
