A stupid question for Jared (or whoever ;-)...

I'm starting to play around with Perl DBI/DBD, and I was wondering how to set the value for V$SESSION.PROGRAM. Basically, I'd like it to show something like "MyStupidApp" instead of "perl.exe". Metalink has a document (147413.1) describing how to do this for Java apps, so I'm assuming that it's possible under Perl as well. I've done a fair amount of googling with no joy, however. :(

I realize that I can manipulate the MODULE and ACTION columns via DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO, and I'll use that as a fallback if necessary, but I'd greatly prefer to manipulate PROGRAM in this case.

Thanx!
