Hi,

I have a select query which selects around 40 columns and build 70-80 virtual columns (using CASE and AS).. In my where clause i use only 2 columns.. the Query takes around 3-5 secs. HOw can i optimize it using index. I tried various indexing but that dosen't help..

Thanks
ViSolve

what does your execution plan suggests? you need to create index only after making sure it is properly used in the query.
