Hi Rajendra

I don't know wether this helps or not: We upgraded a dev db from = 9.2.0.4.0 to 9.2.0.5.0 and as you said, CASE works fine. We have = rewritten all our DECODE statements to CASE and all of them still work. = So at with CASE there doesn't seem to be a problem.

Betreff: Wrong results using decode when db upgraded to 9205

I upgraded a dev db from 9202 to 9205 and one query with a DECODE statement is giving wrong results. The whole query is big, but decode statement looks like ...=20
"and decode('C8','C8',237,0) =3D 237" If the same statement is = re-written
using case it works fine. I am searching on metablink but wanted to check here first. This same query with same decode statement works fine on 9202 database.=20
Any hearsay? Known issues? Experiences?
Thanks
Raj
