Re: Implicitly hidden column & EXTNAME D/S

Hi Barbara

I believe that the compile listing shows the SQL* variables  - ah, they 
are in D-specs - apologies, mea culpa.

Am I missing something, though, with SELECT *? If a column is added, and 
the program is not recompiled, the program will still run, and the new 
column is not available to the program - no level check?

Thanks
Vern
