And another rant. Are others here satisfied with Metalink search engine? I would prefer Google search instead of Oracle's. In all cases when I try to find something in the beginning are useless docs, usually some patches for VMS or for Oracle Application. Strange is that when I looked into them from curiosity, there was not a single occurence of any of my words used in the search. :-(
