I have an application query that runs fine in RBO mode but failing in CBO with ORA-01722: invalid number -
select /*+ rule */ ORDER_NO,ITEM_NO from [EMAIL PROTECTED] where ORDER_NO = 4432089 and PROJECT_ORDER = 'Y' and ORDER_STATUS ='O' ORDER_NO ITEM_NO ---------- -------------------- 4432089 TOOLING COSTS 1 row selected. select /*+ choose */ ORDER_NO,ITEM_NO from [EMAIL PROTECTED] where ORDER_NO = 4432089 and PROJECT_ORDER = 'Y' and ORDER_STATUS ='O' ERROR: ORA-01722: invalid number ORA-02063: preceding line from DB01.WORLD no rows selected ORDER_NO column is varchar2 field and it may be containing some non-numeric data, so I understand that Oracle may be doing implicit conversion on order_no. But, then why it is working fine in RULE based. The explain plan is same in both cases and is using FULL Table access. The table has unique index on ORDER no. Thanks in advance.
