general sql select procedure 2006-04-26 - By Simone Saravalli
Hi all, I'm working with sql stored procedure and I created these one:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE today (tbl_name IN VARCHAR2, old_key IN NUMBER) AS
loop_count NUMBER;
BEGIN SELECT COUNT(*) INTO loop_count FROM tbl_name WHERE depno = old_key;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ('Valore di loop_count: ' || loop_count);
END today;
So, tbl_name is an argument passed with
BEGIN today ('one_of_my_tables_name', value); END;
I would like to have a procedure that works independently from the table name provided by the user when calling the today procedure, but when I try to compile the code above I receive the following error:
ERROR at line 8: PL/SQL: ORA-00942 (See ORA-00942.ora-code.com): table or view does not exist
So it doesn't recognize the tbl_name argument. How can I do to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance
