What does v$SQL_SHARED_CURSOR show? Also remember that outlines will follow cursor sharing rules; if you expect SIMILAR cursors to be shared, the outline must be created with cursor_sharing = SIMILAR. If the queries are exactly the same and still not being shared, hopefully the view will help identify the reason.
