Hi,
I have a table which has a unique PK index on a column
, but my sql is running very slow, how to make the sql to use that unique index, i mean is there a way to provide a hint to the sql.
In my sql iam joining this table which has 6 columns with a parent table which has around 70 columns.
Appreciate any help
Thanks
Ravi

first
look into the execution plan.
if the indexes are not made use of,
then, you can force oracle to make use of indexes.
You can use HINTS to do this.
