Hello,

From I can tell from Oracle pl/SQL programming page 130 ;) it is
identical. However Oracle does have thinkgs like EXCEPTION_INIT.

Here are the name of the Oracle predefined exceptions:

CURSOR_ALREADY_OPEN
DUP_VAL_ON_INDEX
INVALID_CURSOR
INVALID_NUMBER
LOGIN_DENIED
NO_DATA_FOUND
NOT_LOGGED_IN
PROGRAM_ERROR
STORAGE_ERROR
TIMEOUT_ON_RESOURCE
TOO_MANY_ROWS
TRANSACTION_BACKED_OUT
VALUE_ERROR

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
