The Question is:
f$search and insufficeint priviledge -
We are using f$search to process all the files in a given directory. However,
it returns the null string ("") if the process does not have suff. priv. to
read the directory. How can I determine whether the f$search worked and there
are no more files ver
sus none were found because of the privs? Thanks!

The Answer is :
Ensure that the accessor has the necessary privileges and/or
ensure that the user and the directory are set up with the
necessary and matching rights identifiers and default-protection
ACEs and/or the directory and the files are owned by a resource
identifier.
There is no particular difference from not having access to the
files and not having the files -- in specific security environments,
these two conditions can and often do have very deliberately similar
behaviours.
