Problem Note 5744: WHERE statement returns incorrect results
The WHERE statement returns incorrect results when specifying a range
and including additional conditions that fall outside of the range.
For example:
WHERE (a < 5 OR a > 10) AND a NE 8 AND a NE 9;
By modifying the WHERE clause to the following:
WHERE (a < 5 OR a > 10) AND (a NE 8 OR a NE 9);
the WHERE condition returns the correct results.
