Re: Which is th Driving Table ? - basic SQL Qs

'TD_ACCT_MASTER_MOD_TABLE' The query scans this table.

For each accepted row it acquires data from

    'GENERAL_ACCT_MAST_TABLE'
by way of index

    OF 'IDX_GENERAL_ACCT_MAST_TABLE' (UNIQUE) Each row in the result set is then checked twice (probably a pair of existence clauses) against a table whose name is not in the plan because in both cases the checks are complete through index:

    'IDX_SOL_ID_SET_TABLE' The row set that gets through both test is then subject to sorting for an ORDER BY clause.
