Anyone who needs a dose of "Humble Pie" should take a look at any code =

Yes we were all novices once, and we've all pulled off that =great AW $*&t several times. If we, the list members, can save one = newbie from doing the same then this list has paid it's dues, in full.
BTW: If there's a way to do something in Oracle WRONG, I've done it. = Probably twice. And if you feel that's worth a good laugh, enjoy.
