Hi Guys,

I have the following delete-commit procedure (see below). The way it is
called is as follows :

exec delete_commit('delete from xyz where timestamp <=
to_date(''24/05/03'',''dd/mm/yy'')',1000)

Is there a way I can pass the date (timestamp)as a variable so that the
script doesnt have to be physically modified each time this procedure is
executed??

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Rgds
