Manfred,

Hmmmm ... one of my database involves a "crosstab" converstion where there
were 13 possible values, and the converted table is heavily indexed. For
that case, I found using CASE statements to be slower.

For your example, how do the statistics change if you increase the number of
levels to 15 and put an index on them?
