SQL & PL/SQL

Hi all,

I am trying to create a table from select query which fetches around 5000 records.The query looks like

create table xx_test

AS (SELECT col1,col2,col3

       from apps.ar_cash_receipts_all

       where org_id=12345

        and status<>'APP'

        and receipt_method_id=345)

when i try to execute it is taking hours to complete and i tried using hint PARALLEL also but no improvement.Can any one please give there valuable suggestions.

Thanks
