metalink account gives access to the patch download.

Yes, I understand that. <br />
<br />
I'm wondering if I can download any patch, or whether the metalink account is tied to the versions on my license (i.e. specifically 10g PE).

Thank you GeoTiger - that's very interesting. I'll go for it and hope!

Hello experts,<br />
<br />
Those double-glazing-salesman buffoons 'working' at Oracle's UK call centre can't even answer the simplest of questions, so I thought I'd ask those in the know.<br />
<br />
We need to get patches for 9iR2 to test our XMLType-based application (unsupported below 9.2.0.3.0, we only have base 9.2.0.1.0). If we purchase a 10g Personal Edition license with support option, will this allow us to access anything within metalink, or just those patches/downloads etc relating to that version?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance,<br />

Will a metalink account give me access to all version patches?
