Hi
You can use native dynamic PLSQL (8.1 or higher) to do this
stmt varchar2(2000);
stmt := 'INSERT INTO mm_product_temp (rec, rec_old, name, is_disabled,
is_workingcopy)
(SELECT mm_product_seq.nextval, rec, name, is_disabled, is_workingcopy
FROM mm_product@'||v_dblink||' WHERE last_update IS null);'
execute immediate stmt;

Hi,
I'm trying to incorporate a procedure in a package that needs to run using a
dblink name supplied at runtime. The dblink is used in the dml inside the
procedure, but when I compile the package I get "ORA-00942 table or view
does not exist" for all the sql referencing the dblink.
Here is a code snippet:
PROCEDURE CREATE_WC_OVER_DBLINK (
DBLINK VARCHAR2)
v_dblink VARCHAR2(100) := dblink;
BEGIN
INSERT INTO mm_product_temp (rec, rec_old, name, is_disabled,
is_workingcopy)
(SELECT mm_product_seq.nextval, rec, name, is_disabled, is_workingcopy
FROM mm_product@v_dblink
WHERE last_update IS null);
.....
END;
/
The ORA-00942 shows up for the line with the INSERT statement.
Looking for ideas as to how to do this. I saw a MetaLink forum posting
indicating that the way to do this is to create a refcursor, then use a
function to return the supplied sql to the refcursor, then open the
refcursor, etc. etc.
Is this the only way to do it?
thanks
bill
