I just found that the query in question works ... In following conditions ...
BTW it is not datatype conversion issue, the actual decode statement is as follows ...
"and decode('C8','C8','237','0') =3D3D '237'"
=3D20
It is becoming obvious to me that this is an optimizer issue. I'll be
digging further ... =3D20

Hi again
Sorry, haven't looked into it. Since we already changed everything to =
=3D
=3D3D
CASE on 9.2.0.4.0. The reason wasn't a bug but to be coherent with the =
=3D
=3D3D
usage of DECODE / CASE. We agreed upon ANSI style stuff (INNER JOIN, =
=3D3D
CASE blahblah) since 2 developers have a SQL Server background and seem
=3D3D to comprehend that faster (no pun intended, they're great).
