Thanks Rich,
But it does not work.
One should execute with exactly same order. I you do "where f1 >= 2000 and f1 <= 2001" first, everything works fine (as expected). Here is the last part of the output

SQL> select f1 from tb1 where f1 >= 2000 and f1 <= 2000;

        F1


      2000
SQL> select f1 from tb1 where f1 >= 2000 and f1 <= 2001;

        F1


      2000
SQL> select f1 from tb1 where f1 >= 2001 and f1 <= 2000;

        F1


      2001
SQL> drop table tb1;
Table dropped.
SQL> So far,
works properly on

8.1.6.0.0 NT
8.1.6.0.0 32bit Solaris
9.0.1.2 Linux
9.0.1.2 AIX
9.0.1 Solaris

does not work on
8.1.7.2.0 64bit HP-UX
8.1.7.2.0 32bit HP-UX
8.1.7.3 Solaris

Same result on 8.1.7.2 32bit on HP 11.0. The good news is that the correct result is obtained using "...where f1 >= 2000 and f1 <= 2001".

Is anyone using 8.1.7.3 on HP/UX 11 to test this?

Hi,
Can anybody try this on 9i?
set echo on
alter session set optimizer_mode=choose; alter session set cursor_sharing=force;
create table tb1 (f1 number(4));

insert into tb1 values (1999);
insert into tb1 values (2000);
insert into tb1 values (2001);
insert into tb1 values (2002);

commit;
select * from tb1;
analyze table tb1 compute statistics;
select f1 from tb1 where f1 between 2000 and 2000;
select f1 from tb1 where f1 between 2000 and 2001;
select f1 from tb1 where f1 between 2001 and 2000;
drop table tb1;
Here is what I got on 8.1.7.2.1 64bit on HP-UX 11.0: SQL> select * from tb1;

        F1


      1999
      2000
      2001
      2002
SQL> select f1 from tb1 where f1 between 2000 and 2000;
        F1

----------
2000 SQL> select f1 from tb1 where f1 between 2000 and 2001; F1
----------
2000 SQL> select f1 from tb1 where f1 between 2001 and 2000; F1
----------
2001

TIA
Alex.
PS. What about cursor_sharing=similar ?
