Paul, It's because of how ROWNUM is interpreted. The first query only returned the first 50 rows it found and you got 24 that passed the rest of your criteria. The second query returned 1000 rows of which only 336 passed the rest of your criteria. Makes perfect sense to me. This is why

It doesn't really matter what OS you have. Intel hardware can only handle 2Gb files sizes max. Even if the hardware can support large files, it is still recommended that you do not have large datafiles. You need to partition your tablespaces into multiple datafiles. This facilitates backups
