Perhaps you live in a cave. It is something that happens all of the time and I have taught Oracle DBAs to transition to DB2 and SQL Server manys times at quite a few companies. -- Daniel A.

And perhaps you're an arrogant tosser. Why are you sullying yourself with replying to me? I thought you'd put me in your killfile? -- Bye now, Obnoxio "C'est pas parce qu'on n'a rien ' dire qu'il faut fermer sa gueule" - Coluche did i mention i like nulls? heck, i even go so far as to say that all columns in a table except the primary key could/should be nullable. this has certain advantages, for example, if you need to insert a child record and you don't have a parent row for it, just do an insert into the parent table with the primary key value (everything else null), and voila, relational integrity is preserved. but this is, admittedly, a bit controversial among modellers. --r937, dbforums.com
