Hi Wei,

An example would be a Bill of Materials; with Oracle I'd do

select level, item_id, parent_id, quantity from boms start with
parent_id='A' connect by prior parent_id=item_id;

This is what I understand for a "tree-like" query. If that's the wrong
name for it, it's my mistake, I'm sure.

Thanks,
Paulo
