Organization: Fat City Network Services, San Diego, California X-ListServer: v1.0g, build 73; ListGuru (c) 1996-2003 Bruce A. Bergman Precedence: bulk Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Can someone tell me the restriction on the # of columns in the select clause of the statement.. We are running into sort key too long - ORA-01467. I am told there is no order by or group by in the query. I need to look @ the query to make sure there are no references in the statement that generates a implicit sort. I tried to search on the restriction and could not comeup with anything.
