Hi, I still don't get. How can I get the varchar OUT parameter in the application? For Example
CREATE OR REPLACE Function getOutVarchar(outvarchar OUT varchar2) RETURN NUMBER IS BEGIN outvarchar:='This is Out String'; RETURN 1; END getOutVarchar; iris=> SELECT getOutVarchar('outVar'); getoutvarchar --------------- 1 (1 row) My question is how can I Select "outVar" so that it is available in my application as a resultset.
