Yes! :)

I may have misinterpreted the poster's original question here. I =
answered
the name of a good SQL optimization book. If the issue is really PL/SQL
optimization, then you need to have three books in your library:

Kyte, T.: Expert Oracle One on One
Kyte, T.: Effective Oracle by Design
McDonald, C.; et al.: Mastering Oracle PL/SQL

Hi,
I was working on optimising a piece of code which was taking 10hrs + to
execute and all.So my queries are..

#1) Saw a table where the "order of query" on the table and the "order =
of
key"
are different . For faster results shouldn't they be in the same order.


NO.

#2) Can anybody recommend me any site , where I will get reliable
informationon Tuning PL/SQL ?.

Get rid of count(*) and cursors in loops for a start.
