Try putting the select in an enclosing block, ie: -
begin
SELECT my_id INTO v_temp
FROM my_tablee
WHERE my_id = v_number;
exception
when NO_DATA_FOUND then
do_something;
end;
use_v_temp;

Gurus,
In my Oracle 8.1.7 stored procedure, I'm selecting into a variable and need
to check to see if anything was found but I get an exception when there are
no records. I guess I could select count() and check the returned count
number but I thought there might be a better way. Any ideas?
SELECT my_id INTO v_temp
FROM my_tablee
WHERE my_id = v_number;
IF SQL%FOUND THEN
p_error_code := 100;
RETURN;
END IF;
TIA,
Woody
