Bill,

Try putting a ';' after snap that may fix it.

SQL> variable x number;
SQL> begin
2  dbms_job.submit(:x,'statspack.snap;',sysdate,'sysdate + 1/24');
3  end;
4  /



I'm trying to use DBMS_JOB to schedule hourly statspack snaps.  Per note on
Metalink, I've try to run the following:

SQL> variable x number;
SQL> begin
 2  dbms_job.submit(:x,'statspack.snap',sysdate,'sysdate + 1/24');
 3  end;
 4  /
begin
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 108:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "END" when expecting one of the following:
:= . ( @ % ;
The symbol ";" was substituted for "END" to continue.
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_JOB", line 79
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_JOB", line 131
ORA-06512: at line 2

Any ideas on this error?  No helpful info on Metalink.

Checked the status of the package, too:

 1* select object_type, status from all_objects where object_name =
'DBMS_JOB'
SQL> /

OBJECT_TYPE        STATUS
------------------ -------
PACKAGE            VALID
SYNONYM            VALID

Thanks
