Venkata,
the way to do this is to return the column you wish to use in the WHERE
clause.
Example:
Create view v1 as select ename,empno,sal,deptno from emp;
Then, when you access the view, you can say:
select * from v1 where deptno={some value}
I do this all the time, and it works just fine.
hopw this helps.

Dear All,
Is it possible to create a view where I will pass the condition to the where
clause dynamically.
eg)
Create view v1 as select ename,empno,sal from emp where deptno=:a
The value of 'a' I will pass the value dynamically when I do the select.
eg) select * from v1.
Now I'll pass the value say 20.
Is this possible
Any suggestions or workaround for this.
TIA
Regards
Venkata
