Re: Decode in PL/Sql
Gyula, I understand, that you want to apply DECODE function to some local variables in your pl/sql block (and not to some columns in some table). The trick is: you can always run DECODE() against 'dual' table: select DECODE(base_expr, compare1, value1, compare2, value2,... default ) into local_variable_out from dual; In this case 'base_expr' does not have to reference any column in any table.
