Sundeep, The biggest problems you'll have is 1) GETTING THE DEVELOPERS TO AGREE, and 2) your having to write all those procedures. In general I prefer a mixed bag approach. If all their trying to do is select, insert, update or delete a single row in a simple statement, then who cares.

I think that the last line is the problem and that you have to change it to AND D1.EFFDT <= TO_DATE('01-JAN-2002', 'DD-MON-')); I think that he is converting D1.EFFDT to char-format instead of converting '01-JAN-2002' to date-format. Best regards, Marco -Oorspronkelijk bericht- Van
