Re: Perhaps a silly question

Hi,

just start sqlplus, and let them read the header :) Changing that needs relinking to the EE libraries, and they will come with EE, and no other way round. Maybe a silly method or "proof", but sometimes it's the most effective way to deal with those.

But without joking: If the customer does not belive in Oracle's official methods, I doubt that he would believe some official answer for Oracle Support Services, which would have been my proof for my boss.

Regards
Martin
