I've heard that patch number 42 is usually the answer to all problems!

O Contraire - I got a good chuckle out of it
(since the OP ignored the first bit of advice,
which was 100% accurate, and what he/she needed...
then you might as well get a good laugh out of it - or at least a
descent chuckle)

my opinion.

Patchesets are cumulative. If you put on 9.2.0.6 then anything prior
is taken care of ( either the patchset includes the earlier fixes or
supercedes them ).

Instead of 9.2.0.6 I would think of 9.2.0.8 it's more current and has
been relatively stable at my shop.

You need an active oracle support contract to download patchsets and
patches. You do this via metalink ( oracle online support ) at
www.oracle.com . There's a built in search utility from the metalink
Patches & Updates browser tab that let's you search and identify ( then
download ) the ones you need.

Each has a readme file along with oracle note identifiers and you
should take the time to research all of this information before even
thinking about applying it to any systems.

Hope that helps.
