Hi ,
I have two doubts.
1. Order of tables in Join
select * from A,B,C
where A.C1=B.C1
AND B.C1=C.C1;
Vs
select * from C,B,A
where C.C1=B.C1
AND B.C1=A.C1;
with table order is there any performance differences if so which one is better?
2. Join Syntax
select * from A,B
WHERE A.C1=B.C1;
VS
SELECT * FROM A
INNER JOIN B
ON A.C1=B.C1;
these two have performace differences if so which one is better?
Thanks

If statistics are gathered for the tables (or dynamic sampling is on which is the default), order does not matter.
This is the same thing if you use Oracle or ANSI syntax (except that some cases can be written in ANSI and can't be in Oracle one).

Also a remind from your previous topic:

Welcome to the forum.
Please read OraFAQ Forum Guide and How to use [code] tags and make your code easier to read.
For any performances question, please read http://www.orafaq.com/forum/mv/msg/84315/433888/102589/#msg_433888 and post the required information.
Also always post your Oracle version, with 4 decimals, as solution depends on it.

orclx> set autot trace exp
orclx> select distinct d.* from dept d join emp e on (e.deptno=d.deptno);

Try this in SQL*Plus, and all should become clear:connect scott/tiger
set autotrace traceonly explain
select * from emp natural join dept;
select * from dept,emp where dept.deptno=emp.deptno;
