Thanks ... the development is rolling out a new change by adding a new nullable column to a table and adding following to all appropriate queries ...

and nvl(new_column,'A') = nvl(some_value,'A')

I learned of this few minutes ago and luckily they are releasing it to development tomorrow.

Thanks once again
Raj

It won't be able to use the index as far as I know. Unless it's a functional index ;).
