Re: Multiple parameter for WHERE clause



Sheri ...

Although we used the approach 1=1 awhile back, and in some cases (especially
when using CBO in Oracle), it is possible that the optimizer will resolve to
perform a Full Table Scan because of "1=1" condition.

I cannot guarantee that it will *always* happen, but there is a good chance
it might happen when the moon is in the right phase. Why not remove 1-1 from
the where clause, it doesn't serve any purpose anyway.

Anne, regarding your question dynamic where clause. I've seen it done two
different ways.

1. Use 1=1.  We do this all the time and it works just fine.
