    One way is this
    9 - 8 + 7 - 6 + 5 - 4 - 3 + 2 -1 + 0 = 1

    Kumaresh, you had used it very well.I think 123456789 raised to the power 0 also give the same result!

    Even though it is a good solution,it does not satisfy the criteria "you should use all the ten digits once".May be i should have put only once.Anyway good thinking.

    Kumaresh,
    Your solution is very good and simple.
    Abid,
    Your solution is that of a mathematician who knows algebra.

    Still there are some more ways to arrive at the answer which i will post tomorrow,if nobody posts it.

    Or else the reverse for what Abid said... :)
    0 to the power(23456789)+ 1 = 1

    :)
    Thanks 'n' Regards,
