I have the following statement that I would like to create a function-based index for:

SELECT MIN(tran_dt)
FROM ach_tran
WHERE cnfr_no = :b1

I'd like the index to include columns cnfr_no and tran_dt (in that order). The examples I've seen are
just single-column indexes. Is it possible to have this additional column in a function-based index that
is not involved in the actual function? If yes, what would the index creation statement look like?

This is version 9.2.0.1 on Sun Solaris 2.6.
