Hi all, I need to improve a query like : SELECT id, min(the_date), max(the_date) FROM my_table GROUP BY id; Stupidly, I create a B-tree index on my_table(the_date), witch is logically not used in my query, because it's not with a constant ? isn't it ? I know that I can't create a function index with an aggregative function. How I can do ? thanks, jsubei _____________________________________________________________________________ Ne gardez plus qu'une seule adresse mail ! Copiez vos mails vers Yahoo!
