Hi, David: Thanks.
I have already concated the table columns into one column, but in further I want to concate these rows from the select statement into one variable. Such as:
DECLARE v_day date;
BEGIN
SELECT startMonth||startDay||startYear
INTO v_day
FROM time_table
WHERE startMonth BETWEEN ('JAN', 'DEC');
END;
My WHERE-condiction will return more than one rows in the procedure (I'm actually do these in a trigger). And I need to concate them together. I don't know if use a cursor to concate these rows into one would be to much? IS there an easy way to achieve the goal?
Thanks

Hi Wendy,
Here's an example from a PL/SQL procedure:
inputFromDate := startMonth||'/'||startDay||'/'||startYear;
The '/' is a delimiter, if you don't want one just use:
inputFromDate := startMonth||startDay||startYear;
The individual data elements in this case were user input on a web
browser, but the same syntax applies if the elements had been selected
from tables.
Hope this helps.
