Create views on the fly?
Ugh. Sorry, but that's really ugly IMO.
It would be much easier to use a refcursor.
Example follows.
Jared
---- ref_cursor_test.sql
var tables_rc refcursor;
prompt Table Owner?:
col cowner noprint new_value uowner
set term off feed off
select upper('&1') cowner from dual;
set term on feed on
begin
open :tables_rc for
select table_name, tablespace_name
from all_tables
where owner = '&&uowner';
end;
/
print tables_rc;
undef 1

Hi,
Someone posted the past week the solution of something like that.
He referred to create package and pass the date as a parameter to it
and have a procedure, inside the package, that create the view using
the parameter date.
That what I can recall.
Good luck,
Ramon E. Estevez

Para: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L
Asunto: Need assistance with a 'VIEW'.
I have been given the nice task of creating a view of some data in our
database.
This doesn't seem like a major task, but after 2 days of work, I am
stumped.
Given table 'table1'
code1,
code2,
date,
value1,
value2
I need to produce a view showing
code1,
code2,
sum(value1),
sum(value2)
where date < 'user input date'
I have not been able to get the view to prompt for the date to limit the
sum
by.
Specifics:
Oracle RDMBS 7.3.4
Server: Unix
What else can I say, but I am totally stumped. HELP!
