Ron,
Trunacte is DDL not DML. The easiest was around this is to wrap it in an
execute immediate command:
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'TRUNCATE TABLE LOT837_GLOBAL_TBL_KMG';
END;
/
Note that the semi-colon is outside the quotes - don't place a semi-colon
inside the quotes.
Regards,
Mark.
truncate is a sqlplus command(and DDL), so to do it, you need to use the
dbms_sql(or execute immediate) command, i think.

Look up info on using "execute immediate"
This will let you put non-DML-type statements in a PL/SQL block.

Will I be the first to say that you need to use dynamic SQL?
dbms_sql package in Oracle version < 8.1
execute immediate in Oracle version >= 8.1

Truncate is a DDL. So you can't just do
"truncate" like you would with delete which is a DML.
You
didn't say which version of Oracle you are running. If it's 8i,
do
execute immediate "truncate table
.";
Otherwise, look into DBM
