Hi,

I am new to strings and procedures and am getting this error message when trying to create a procedure.

the code is as below -

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION CREATE_VIEW_FT_OB_DTLS (REPORTDATE IN DATE) RETURN NUMBER IS
SQL_STMT VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
BEGIN
SQL_STMT:= 'CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW VW_FT_OB_DETAILS'
|| ' AS SELECT '
|| 'PID,'
|| 'TRANSACTION_AMOUNT TX_AMOUNT,'
|| 'TRANSACTION_DATE TXN_DATE,'
|| 'TRANSACTION_TYPE TXN_TYPE,'
|| 'FROM '
|| 'TABLE_TEMP'
|| 'WHERE '
|| 'TRANSACTION_DATE BETWEEN TRUNC(TO_DATE('
|| ''''
|| REPORTDATE
|| ''''
|| ' ,''MM/DD/YYYY''),''MONTH'') AND LAST_DAY('
|| ''''
|| REPORTDATE
|| ''''
|| ')';

EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
ORA_RAISERROR (SQLCODE,'ERROR WHILE ASSIGNING VALUE', 40);
END;
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE SQL_STMT;
RETURN 0;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
ORA_RAISERROR (SQLCODE,'ERROR WHILE EXECUTING STATEMENT',50);
END;

EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
ORA_RAISERROR (SQLCODE,'ERROR WHILE CREATING VIEW',50);

END;
/


I am getting error -

ORA-06550: line 6, column 17:
PLS-00382: expression is of wrong type
ORA-06550: line 6, column 3:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored

No space between "from" and tablename and between tablename and "where".

Besides, why don't you just use your where-clause on the view itself, instead of creating a view based on each different date?

a "," just before FROM.

And so on.

Why are you using a TO_DATE function on report_date, which is to be used on character string, in one part of the WHERE clause and then using a function (ie. last_day) which requires a DATE type in the other part?
