Create User Defined Alternatives

In addition to using SQL Optimizer to generate alternative statements, you can create user defined alternatives. You can create user defined alternatives using SQL text from your original SQL statement or from SQL text of an alternative SQL Optimizer generated.

To create a user defined alterative

  1. Select the SQL Details tab in the main window.
  2. Enter the SQL statement in the in the Alternative Details pane.

  3. Click .

  4. Edit the statement in the SQL Text pane to create a user defined alternative.

    Note: To create a user defined alternative using SQL text of an alternative SQL Optimizer generated, right-click an alternative and select User Alternative.

Caution: SQL Optimizer does not check that user defined alternatives are semantically equivalent to your original SQL statement. Review the execution statistics for user defined alternatives to compare the results with your original statement. See View Execution Statistics for more information.

Set Bind Variables

You need to define the values of SQL statement variables before you optimize the statement. The Set Bind Variables window displays automatically when you use SQL Optimizer for a statement with variables.

Troubleshooting: If the Set Bind Variables window displays when you optimize a statement without variables, make sure you spelled the column and table names correctly, you selected the correct database or user, and you selected a table or column that exists in the database.

To set a bind variable

  1. Select the SQL Details tab in the main window.
  2. Enter a SQL statement with a bind variable.
