Here's a bit of code that will always find the first wednesday of the
following month:
-- find the first wednesday of any month
alter session set nls_date_format = 'mm/dd/yyyy';
define testdate = '09/03/2003'
select
trunc(add_months('&&testdate',1),'mm') +
decode( to_char(trunc(add_months('&&testdate',1),'mm'),'dy')
,'wed',0
,'thu',6
,'fri',5
,'sat',4
,'sun',3
,'mon',2
,'tue',1
)
--, to_char(trunc(add_months('&&testdate',1),'mm'),'dy')
from dual
