One detail that may seem subtle, but it's important. Notice that EXPLAIN PLAN doesn't show an execution plan, it shows a *predicted* execution plan. Contrast this to the notion that there's a real execution plan in your trace data (if you've activated it) or in your V$ fixed views, but only after having executed the query in question.

Subject: script to see explain plan

Hello Everybody

I would like ask you to about explain plan. I am looking for the best script to see explain plan. I know that it is possible to see explain plan for active session of other users. I use script from metalink Note:260942.1. Maybe you use better scripts to see explain plan.
