Re: [cx-oracle-users] How do you pass a boolean to a stored procusing cx_Oracle?

[JG <z28...@gm...>]

Thank you!

I will try the workaround you mention below.  I think that would be what I 
need.  In the meantime, I have just changed the stored proc to take an 
number instead of the boolean. I will try your solution.

thanks a bunch!

regards,
joe
