DESC clause in INDEXes

Who could tell me what are the consequences of a DESCending clause in an index (Oracle 8i)?
ex : CREATE INDEX I_CUSTOMER ON CUSTOMER (CUSTOMER_ID DESC)

It does NOT change the default sort order of ORDER BY clauses, whereas one should have thought it would! Received on Fri Jun 14 2002 - 06:13:18 CDT
