It seems your belief is correct.
I created a procedure
create or replace procedure proc
as begin
execute immediate 'select dense_rank()over(order by v_no)rank
from bill_ent';
end;
I want to use this procedure in my trigger to achieve the same functionality as dense_rank() in pl/sql.
I want to use rank as a column in the insert into statement.
HOw can ido that?or Can ido that?

I have columns in my intr_vch_tmp_dtl1 table.
v_no,gr_amt....etc..
I want to assign rank to the v_no such that the rank changes as the v_no changes.
Something Like this:
rank v_no sal
1 10 1000
1 10 500
2 20 200
For this purpose i a m using Dense_rank but since it is not supported in forms 6i,Is there any workaround to achieve the same functionality?

Perhaps you didn't notice, but it is not that the original poster doesn't understand DENSE_RANK, but his inability to use it in Forms Builder ver. 6.
