Hi!
 I am trying to use a column inside the Rtrim function in sql query's where clause,I have an index for that column,I read from sql tuning books that Oracle will not use the index if the column is embedded within a function call like upper,is null etc. How do I force Oracle to make use of that Index?...

Please do give me your valuable suggesstions on this.

Thanks in advance.
