Never mind, REF_CURSOR should be REF CURSOR. It's early

Hi DBAs,

I have I think is a very simple package but I cannot get it to compile because of the following error. Can anyone see what the problem is? The message suggest an error in the specification. Wow only 2 lines of code in the spec.

PLS-00905: object PKG_ARGS is invalid
PLS-00304: cannot compile body of pkg_args without its specification.

Thanks
Rick

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE pkg_args AS
TYPE ref_args IS REF_CURSOR;
PROCEDURE get_args (i_proc_name IN VARCHAR2,i_pkg_name IN VARCHAR2,refargs OUT ref_args);
END;
/

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY pkg_args AS   PROCEDURE get_args (i_proc_name IN VARCHAR2,i_pkg_name IN VARCHAR2,refargs OUT ref_args) AS
  BEGIN
    OPEN refargs FOR 'select argument_name || '','' || data_length || '','' ||

            data_precision || '','' || data_scale || '', '' || data_type || '', '' || in_out

            from all_arguments where object_name = ' || i_proc_name ||
            'and package_name = '|| i_pkg_name;

  END;
END;
