Could 'in' or 'between' do what you want? I know that using 'in' is equivalent to what you have below. Could 'between' be more efficient--you could do explain analyze on various options to see what the actual plan would be.

Hi All,

In several of my SQL statements I have to use a WHERE clause that contains
mutiple ORs. i.e.


WHERE column1 = 'A' OR
      column1 = 'B' OR
      column1 = 'C'

Is there a more efficient SQL statement that accomplishes the same limiting
functionality?


Kind Regards,
Keith
