Greetings and Thank you for your
Jared, A few of our databases are still sitting in 81.7.4 , As usual we are
short on disk space,
DEV Team and App Prod Support Team came up with a few old tables they used
during conversion which were retained as part of business requirement.
Now they have decided to drop these tables to release space for us.
Given a chance I would like test this with 10046 level 12 trace in all versions, but the only test system I have now is 10gRel2.
