The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

What's new as of April 2011
CONNECT BY for hierarchical queries
I'm guessing 7.1 with an early Technology Refresh (TR) or database group PTF.
~ 4 years ago.

I've done a BOM explosion into Excel but had to limit it to around 4
