Schema for J2EE project

userspecific schemas because this application sits on a production floor and any production employee can walk to a
workstationand access the database to punch work time. I know that the public schema is not supposed to be used. <br
/><br/>Is the best practice to make one schema for the database and then delete public? <br /><br />Will using a schema
otherthan public cause problems for users accessing the database with ODBC from Windows?<br /><br />Thank
