Re: Oracle University Turkey ... follow-up
Not really a technical problem thread: it's a tail-end of an Oracle XE licensing spat in comp.databases.informix that degenerates into joking. The only technical content is a one-line answer to a poster unfamiliar with Informix's UPDATE STATISTICS — it was explained as the Informix equivalent of Oracle's DBMS_STATS package (akin to ANALYZE TABLE). The rest is puns about 'irony'/cordless irons and metals. No actual problem is posed and no resolution is recorded; little value for troubleshooting.

Daniel,
Update Statistics is the equivalent of the Oracle DBMS_STATS package.

Then yes I know what it is. And perhaps, also, ANALYZE TABLE.
No ... never tried it with XE. I spend essentially 100% of my time
in the Enterprise Edition.
