Hi All,

I am facing a problem with query.

In the query we are using UNION .If we run individually then it's working fine.
If we union then the query is executing for long time And we are not getting result .
please help me.
Thanks in advance.

"Union" automatically removes duplicates like using distinct on the whole result set. This causes a sort that makes it slow. If you do not need to eliminates duplicates then using "union all" is faster.

So there is no more question, you want distinct values, you have to use UNION, if you want more help post what is requested in BlackSwan's link.

Make sure your individual "test runs" are actually returning all the rows and not first n.

In what way would you "not get a result" using the union?
