Franco, in Oracle Business Objects you have universes that can be as little as you like
-
That's good to hear. It's more development/e-Business Suite I'm interested in, rather than DBA.Originally posted by Rebecca Loosyes it is quite good but you usually have to have Oracle + other things (whatever it is: C#, Java, XML/XSL-T, any J2EE sh1t) and then there are lots of decent contracts there.
The current upward trend I think is more for Oracle developers than DBAs tho'.

Don't worry, Franco. I'm sure in your universe, there's plenty of fine totty eager to please Al Pacino lookalikes.

"Franco disappears into his own little universe"
How can a universe be little? That's a paradox. Unless you admit that a universe can coexist in a bigger universe. Therefore we are not talking about a universe any longer.

Don't worry, every so often Franco disappears into his own little universe, where I'm sure he converses with Dali and Breton.Originally posted by Rebecca Looswhat's a tnsnames.ora?

It helps if you wear a miniskirt like Rebecca too.
Then you can get away with just knowing what's a tnsnames.ora as an Oracle expert.
