Hi Anita,

        I'm not sure if you are the original poster but ....

        There is a way to force a view into fast refresh mode
        after you have restructured the snapshot logs

        WARNING: This is unsupported by Oracle and involves messing
                with the data dictionary.

        I once had to create a 4GB snapshot over an ISDN line
        This was done by creating the snapshot locally, exporting,
        ftp, import and then:

        In DBA_SNAPSHOTS (I believe) I compared the entry in the local
        database to the remote. One field was different in my case. A simple
        update to the data dictionary enabled the FAST REFRESH to take place.

        THIS IS DANGEROUS STUFF :) 

Dave
