Subject: Login greater than 8 Characters
Hi All,
Tech Specs: IDS - 7.31.UD5W5, Solaris 8
Is there a way to have a Login greater than 8 characters?
This query against the sysmaster database lists 27 tables that seem to have
char(8) for the login.
-- SQL to list probable candidates for a login column
select tabname as Table, colname as Column
from systables, syscolumns
where systables.tabid = syscolumns.tabid and
(syscolumns.colname matches "*owner*" or
syscolumns.colname matches "*user*") and
syscolumns.collength = 8;
Not that system tables should be modified :-(
Any ideas?
TIA,
Zev Berezin
