Need help rewriting SQL with TRUNC function

From: <Cherie_Machler_at_gelco.com>
Date: Thu, 15 Nov 2001 08:20:39 -0800
Message-ID: <F001.003C5F5E.20011115070026@fatcity.com>

I think that the following statement is keeping this application from using an index in my cost-based execution plan. This is an 8.0.4 database so I don't have the option of creating a function-based index.

I'm not that great with SQL. Can anyone help me rewrite this statement so that I don't need to use the TRUNC function on this column in blue?

  (trunc(sysdate) - trunc(erh.arrival_dt)) >= 7 AND

Thanks,
