<BR>Well, the worst thing I know about it is that any DIRECTORY (that's
right, directory, not file) you have to acces through it is available with
user ORACLE's permission to any other application (or smart user) that
has access to the package. If you can live with that (or go round it using
custom functions that call it with some security schema of <U>your design</U>),
well, it works.</HTML>
