>>Explain can be used to improve the performance of queries.
>>Explain command populates three tables
PLAN_TABLE,DSN_STATEMNT_TABLE,DSN_FUNCTION_TABLE. These
tables contains various info about the queries which can be
used for improving the performance.
>>Step1:PLAN_TABLE must be created.
>>Step2:Use explain sql or explain option in Bind to
populate the tables.
>>For example,explain plan set queryno=01 for select empname
from employee;
This would populate plan and statement table.Assigned
queryno would be 01.
>>Alternately EXPLAIN(YES) in BIND option.
>>Only select,insert,update,select for update,delete, delete
current of cursor,update current of cursor can be used in
explain.
