alter session set sql_behavior = 'normal'

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02248: invalid option for ALTER SESSION
Proof that there is nothing 'normal' about me <grin>
I ran my subquery separately looking for null's and it doesn't look
like I have any. Here is what I did. Let me know if you think this
would report any nulls.
select count(pearinternal) from common.pear
where pear_clnt_src_cd = 'CCN';
COUNT(RPIINTERNAL)
------------------
5347
select count(pearinternal) from common.pear
where pear_clnt_src_cd = 'CCN'
and pearinternal is null;
COUNT(PEARINTERNAL)
------------------
0
select count(pearinternal) from common.pear
where pear_clnt_src_cd = 'CCN'
and pearinternal is not null;
COUNT(PEARINTERNAL)
------------------
5347

seriously ... me thinks that you have a NULL value returned by your
subquery.

Mike,
Thanks for the tip, but I have already prefixed the owner for both
tables so that shouldn't be a problem. That did give me an idea for
som
additional testing. When I made a smaller copy of the PEAR table, all
queries work correctly. This tells me there might be something
"unique"
about the original table.
I'll be doing more testing. Stay tuned and I'll post updates as I
make
new discoveries.
Thanks
Stephen
