What does your listener.ora and sqlnet.ora look like?
If you want to connect to an instance ORCL you use that not
"@NT.test" ...
Looks of examples on the internet of setting up oracle on windows
maybe you might want to follow a documented example that works?

This is something I forgot to mention in my initial post - your
approach is potentially flawed in general if there is more than a
single row with product_id != 204. You're incorrect that your UNION
will give you only two rows then (it will give you as many as there
are unique combinations of the values), and since your analytic

As mentioned by others, the WITH clause is only used here to generate
some test data, it has nothing to do with the PIVOT operation
performed.
In general understanding the WITH clause (also called "Subquery
factoring" or "Common Table Expression (CTE)") is not complicated - it
is just another way of writing an inline view, so you could rewrite my

Try to grasp the idea that Oracle is not crafted by MicroSoft.
All you'll ever need is one database - you got one head, right?

You are correct, i've overlooked it in OP plan - there is only one table
in place. However, all the NULL/NOT NULL logic discussed above still
applies in that case, i think.

Re: New Procedurs With Version# In Name

How is this so? This screams multiple branches of the codebase which is
exactly why versioning control is so needed to accomplish this.
I disagree. Multiple schemas allow the same named objects. Make the
schema name have the branch name and this would work. The issue is that
there is a shared schema of tables. What do you do when the same named

How about EE10g from technology network? It really is fully

Use dbca if you want more than one database ...

Re: Why is this query slow?

I'm a little confused here.
Although the OP references 2 tables in his original query ('transactions'
and 'transaction'), I guess he actually only has 1 table ('transactions'):
1. OP stated: "Table has 11 million rows" which doesn't make much sense if
he has 2 tables.
2. The original Execution Plan only references table 'transactions', not
