Hi to everyone,

First of all I have to say that I now the database is not ok. There was
a people before me that didn't do the thinks right. I would like to
normalize the database, but it takes too much time (there is is hundred
of SQLs to change and there is not enough technical resources). Also,
datacolumns in some places has same names, but the data that is stores
has different usages.

Thanks everyone for all hints, I ll try to do my best performing the
database structure.

By other hand, I was able to create the corrects index and with this

AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM ficha vf WHERE idestado IN ('3', '4') AND
vf.idficha = c.idfile);

it is really fast.

Thanks to everybody.

Regards,
Ruben Rubio
