Disabled pin issue
I guess there was an issue brought up that if a student attempts to log in more than three times, the account gets disable. If they then retrieve their pin through my new program, it still will not allow them to log in. Since my package was on aero, I was using a database link to get the pin out of the gobtpac table on wouprd. This link only allowed queries, not updates, so I asked Brian to help me figure out a way to update that table and make sure the account is enabled once they retrieve their pin. He was able to modify the gobtpac view to use the wouprd_upd database link and then I was able to write a procedure as wou_util to update that field based on a pidm. Then my program calls this procedure once the pin has been sent.
