RE: Oracle Snapshot Too Old during programatic load

That's just sidestepping the problem. I agree it is an easy fix but there should be a way to diagnose and correct the problem. I have done everything suggested in the Oracle papers but nothing seems to work. There must be something I am missing.

Thanks!
Ron
