Re: What's fast way to get total of records

Thanx Richard for your reply. I didn't think that analyzing would make a difference in that case (I know, Iknow, I should always analyze my tables under CBO). I analyzed the table, and the exec plan in fact changed to using the index, even without a hint. Anyone has an idea why the plan would change according to how many rows Oracle thinks there are in the table (before I analyzed the table, Oracle thought that there were 41 rows in the table)?
