I'm not sure why you want to do this. Why not have the package that you call return the value back to the calling package. I would not guarantee that the value you expect to be stored in the variable would exist when you think it will be there.

You have to declare this variable in package1 specification

create or replace package pkg1 is
end;
/

create or replace package pkg2 is
  procedure showvar;
end;
/

create or replace package pkg2 body is
  procedure showvar
  begin
    dbms_output.put_line(pkg1.v_var);
  end;
end;
/

exec pkg2.showvar
in SQLPlus prompt should do that

Hi All,

I have a package pkg1 that has a variable var 1 declared

Inside of pkg2 I want to use pkg1.var1. I always get PLS201 identifier pkg1.var1 must be declared.
What do I need to do to correct.

Pkg1 compiles fine.

Thanks
Rick
