Hi,
Do you see a way of converting strings looking like
> "/*MINUIT*/ TRUNC(SYSDATE)+ 1"
> "/*5:MINS*/ SYSDATE+1/288"
> "/*04:00AM*/ TRUNC(SYSDATE)+1.166666"
> "sysdate + 10/1440"

to display their real date value ?

When doing
SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='yyyymmdd hh24:mi'; SQL> SELECT ???(INTERVAL), interval FROM DBA_JOBS;

I'd like to see:

   ???(INTERVAL) INTERVAL

---------------- ----------------

20040315 10:13 sysdate + 10/720

Thanks.
