Hi I can't filter a query, what I'm doing wrong, please This is the query SELECT TIPO, CTP_COD, CTP_NOMBRE FROM SOA.VEW_STR_CONTRAPARTE WHERE ((CTP_TIPO_CTPTE IS NULL OR CTP_TIPO_CTPTE= 'AGB' )) AND (INC_CODCLI_TIT = NVL(NULL,-1) OR INC_CODCLI_TIT IS NULL ) AND INC_TIPO = 'P' AND CTP_COD='CNC'; and it returns all rows from the table ( in thery it only have to return the one that has CTP_COD='CNC' The reason is the CTP_TIPO_CTPTE IS NULL , even when it is in parenthesis, it works like a LIKE '%' Some one understands why? I suppose this is a bug or is this a misunderstanding of sql. Thanks. This is the query CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW soa.vew_str_contraparte ( tipo, ctp_cod, ctp_nombre, ctp_tipo_ctpte, inc_tipo, inc_codcli_tit ) AS SELECT 'Z' TIPO,'ZZE' CTP_COD, 'EMISOR' CTP_NOMBRE, NULL CTP_TIPO_CTPTE, NULL INC_TIPO, NULL INC_CODCLI_TIT FROM DUAL UNION ALL SELECT 'Z' TIPO,'ZZC' CTP_COD, 'CLIENTE' CTP_NOMBRE, NULL CTP_TIPO_CTPTE, NULL INC_TIPO, NULL INC_CODCLI_TIT FROM DUAL UNION ALL SELECT 'C' TIPO, CTP_COD, CTP_NOMBRE,CTP_TIPO_CTPTE, NULL INC_TIPO, NULL INC_CODCLI_TIT FROM CONTRAPARTE UNION ALL SELECT 'I' TIPO,A.INT_COD CTP_COD,EMP_NOMBRE CTP_NOMBRE, NULL CTP_TIPO_CTPTE INC_TIPO , INC_CODCLI_TIT FROM SOA.INTERM A, ADM.EMPRESAS B, INTERM_CTA C WHERE A.EMP_RUC=B.EMP_RUC AND A.INT_COD=C.INT_COD ORDER BY 1,2 / Juan Carlos Reyes Pacheco OCP -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
