Hi DBA Gurus,

        Is it possible to use the copy command in a stored procedure? I am trying to use the copy command to copy one of the table data from user A to user B in the same database in a stored procedure with source database, username and password and destination database, username and password being used as input parameters. But I am getting ora - 900 error - invalid sql statement error. Any ideas?

Here is my code:

create or replace procedure copy_proc as sql1 varchar2(2000);
begin
sql1:= 'copy from primal/primal_at_primal to jstage2/jstage2_at_primal append carrier using select * from carrier';
execute immediate sql1;
end;

Any help in this regard will be very much appreciated.

TIA and Regards,

Ranganath
