Hi,

the following select
select decode (date, null, '2099-12-31', date) from dual

returns
20061106

Why not a date?

My guess would be that MaxDB coerces the return value of decode into
the most general one.  Try to convert your argument '2099-12-31' to a
date and see what happens.

Kind regards

robert
