Can you hint the query to use the right index? If not, try where = table.text_field||'' =3D :bind_variable or table.number_field *1 =3D = :bind_variable or=20
:bind_variable or table.number_field =3D to_char(:bind_variable)

Subject: how to get oracle to ignore an index

I have a query that uses bind variables, so it cannot use histograms. = Its choosing the wrong index. I have been dropping the index, getting it = to choose the correct index and using a stored outline.

anyway to go: oracle ignore this index.

I tried disabled, but that just returns an error, plus I have to rebuild = it. I'd prefer to avoid building the index again.
