Hi Mark,

I resolved the question by using CAST...

SELECT ts_ultima_modifica FROM movimento_canina WHERE CASTcast(ts_ultima_modifica AS TIMESTAMP)='2013-04-11 10:14:52.782680';

thanks for the help anyway.

ps:

by the way, the query
select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(format=>'ALLSTATS LAST')); doesn't work.
