Hello Describe is SQL*Plus only (not a sql command). You have to query the metadata tables, e.g. user_tab_columns. Regards Dieter

Dear List,
Is it possible to issue a 'describe' sql statement to an Oracle database? I am getting the following error :
Error, dco2.DatabaseError: (900, 'ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement')
I have no problem with other SQL statements.
Any help, much appreciated,
Rob
