The 5 Oracle Tricks You Never Knew

September 18th, 2006 by The Oracle Alchemist

Hello all!  Over the next few days I’ll be updating my blog with 5 Oracle tricks that you may not even know about.  They’re all pretty neat, and actually useful to a DBA (one of them is even useful for practical jokes)!
