Steve,
Is that 'inside the block' or 'outside the block'? I assume inside.
therefore try:
accept var_a char prompt 'Insert your variable'
declare
local_var varchar2(100) := &var_a;
begin
....
end;

I'm am trying to use an accept statement to grab some info from the user in
an SQL script,
and then use that in a subsequent PL/SQL block. I can do the Accept ok, but
can't sem to
access the variable onside the block. Can anyone point me in the right
direction?
Thanks in advance.
Steven H.
