Bit Masking in an index

Just a newbie question.

I want to be able to mask off an index to see if a bit is on, from within a select statement. For example, a mask of 0x1 would return the indexes of 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, etc. but not 2, 4, 6, 8, etc.

Is this possible in Oracle 8.0.4?

Thanks! Received on Fri Sep 18 1998 - 10:36:56 CDT
