Am I missing something? It looks to me like these queries are the same... -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2004 9:09 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L
Hi All, I have the query like: SELECT * FROM tab1 WHERE UPPER(col1) <> 'abc'; Obviously, the function based index i have is not hetting used because of the ineqality. When using SELECT * FROM tab1 WHERE UPPER(col1) <> 'abc'; index is getting used. How can I possibly use index in the 1st case.
