An interesting observation

IN ignore null values as you can see in the table there are 310 null values in column TBL_DSM.

SQL> select count(*) from daz.utl_tablas_me

  2 where tbl_dsm in

  3 (select null from daz.utl_tablas_me);

 COUNT(*)


        0

SQL> select count(*) from daz.utl_tablas_me

  2 where exists(select null from daz.utl_tablas_me);

 COUNT(*)


      310
