procedure

[Malik, Fawzia]

Hi Guys

I am executing the delete commit procedure as follows:

#!/bin/ksh
sqlplus -s archive/archive <<eof

spool /tmp/del_report
exec delete_commit('delete from table where timestamp
<=to_date(''03/06/03'',''dd/mm/yy'')',1000)
spool off
exit
eof

Ideally what I'd like to do is set timestamp as a variable i.e
&&timestamp..but am unable to do this in the above as it ignores
&&timestamp...please can someone give me some suggestions/hints.??

Thanks in advance

Fawzia
