Just hints (perhaps others will be kind enough to work this with you)

  1. Try writing it using ANSI joins and then look at the docco to map the 'ANSI' back to Oracle's outer join capability.
  2. Ask yourself why you are still using Oracle8. At least for test purposes, you could create an Oracle9i or Oracle10g harness and check it out. If this is a one-off question, possibly use that harness with DB links back to the Oracle8 database.
