Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Rename Column in 9iR2
Hemant,
The price I am referring to is the cost involved with moving from a
Dell server on Novell to a Compaq OpenVMS server. There are a lot of
company sided issues that have to be addressed and cases made for the
move. In this case the software is not an issues as you stated, the
issues revolve around the hardware and developmental considerations. I
would be more that happy to move to the latest and greatest "solid"
platform/database combination. It would allow us to create and implement
browser based applications rather easily and would allow us to use the
9iAS Suite of products.
For now all I can do is make requests for item to be included in the
budget as we move "forward, backwards, sideways, dance on circles".

An upgrade wouldn't cost anything. It would be free as part of your support contract.

Kevin,
Yes but does it work with data in the column?, I do not have 9i set
up
yet. If it works as you describe with data in the column it will
really
help with the multi million row tables that "they" want to rename a
column after a release of a new lotto game.
thanks,
for the test and update.
