Interesting discussion.

On my Oracle Performance Tuning course, some time back, we were told that the 
column data type was always converted to the data type it was being compared 
with, whether it was on the left or right side of the comparison operator. 
Hence the inability to use existing non-function based indexes.


Cheers,
Norm.
