select BIRTH from yunsh where TO_DATE(BIRTH) > TO_DATE('2001-01-01');

BIRTH field is VARCHAR(50) type.

But, it thrown exception below:

I tested below cases and that succeeded

• TO_DATE used in SELECT-caluse
• TO_DATE used at RHS in WHERE-caluse. (In this case, BIRTH field was DATE type)

Does anybody have a solution? or is it a bug?
