Hi,
i have written my procedure like this........
FOR ARTS_rec IN ARTS_cursor LOOP
SELECT 1 FROM URT_CITY CITY
WHERE
.......
IF SQL%FOUND THEN
ARTS_rec.m25 := ARTS_rec.m25||RPAD('Y',31,' ');
ELSE
ARTS_rec.m25 := ARTS_rec.m25||RPAD('N',31,' ');
END IF;
UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE(v_file_handle,
ARTS_rec.a||ARTS_rec.b||ARTS_rec.m25 );
END LOOP;
here am getting an error
LINE/COL ERROR
-------- -----------------------------------------------------------------
318/7 PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement
318/7 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored...
so i have used
something like this,
FOR ARTS_rec IN ARTS_cursor LOOP
SELECT count(*) into cnt FROM URT_CITY CITY
WHERE
.......
IF cnt >0 THEN
ARTS_rec.m25 := ARTS_rec.m25||RPAD('Y',31,' ');
ELSE
ARTS_rec.m25 := ARTS_rec.m25||RPAD('N',31,' ');
END IF;
UTL_FILE.PUT_LINE(v_file_handle,
ARTS_rec.a||ARTS_rec.b||ARTS_rec.m25 );
END LOOP;

Thanks
Victoria

You should not use second one coz it takes a count(*) and count is always avoided and that too in a loop.
When you are calling any select call you should either use cursor outside the BEGIN .....
or
Select 'x' into vVar
where Conditions.....
You can use this in both the locations first statement and second one too.
