Thanks Raj,

Part of the problem is we don't know what queries actually belong to which report (because the source is missing) and there are probably about 150+ users of this particular system at anytime running queries from SQL, FORMS or REPORTS.

Cheers,
Kev.

Give a try by tracing the session used by the report.

Thanks Rachel,

I'll check these tables to see what dets they hold. The problem I have is that I can't phone the user and say "are you running that report", because they have a big nasty lady who will come and bite my head off if she thinks we're actually trying to help!!

;o)

you should be able to pull the queries out of v$sql, v$sqlarea and/or v$sqltext
