A select datefield from table where datefield > date1 and datefield < date2 will 
produce the same resulte as specifing the date trunc() or using the time as 00:00:00. 
The >, < will pick time 00:00:00 values to compare against.

Hi Steve, 

Looking at your query - I'm wondering why you are trunc'ing both?  

in your inline view, can't you get away with 

and it.transaction_date between (to_date('05-19-01 00:00:00','mm-dd-yy
hh24:mi:ss'))
and (to_date('05-28-01 00:00:00','mm-dd-yy hh24:mi:ss'))

or 29th and 18th, whichever would provide you with the correct window? 

Same with the customer_order.order_date > to_date('02-14-01' ... ) line. 

Am I losing it?  as long as it's a window and not equality, I don't see why
you need to trunc the data. Have you tried that?  did you get the same
miserable performance, and the same type of plan?
