I don't think this is the issue at all.  The SQL in the function
that generates the predicate WILL use bind variables and that
is perfectly expected.  That's why you don't see an increase in parses
on the SQL INSIDE the function.

What will not use bind variables is this bit:

> SQL> select count(*) from dpr70_gl_acct_balance_f;

because the added predicate is a string without bind syntax.

However, I think if the added predicate string contains a reference
to a context variable, which is what Tom is talking about, it might 
well be the case this will act as a kind of bind variable
even though the syntax is not the correct one. Anyone found if that
is the case?
