Hi Dears,


There is a table under sys called COl$, there you can change the name of
the column and then flush shared pool to reflect the changes. But donto
try this in production database, as this is not supported, I tried
dropping the column also, but it then killed dbwr when I tried to desc
that table.


Try it.
