What about this example:

declare

      type      m_curs_type is REF CURSOR;   
      m_curs    m_curs_type;
      m_str     varchar2(200) := '(1,2,3,4)';
      m_sql     varchar2(1000);
      m_ret     varchar2(20);
  begin
      m_sql := 'select 100 hh from dual where 1 in '||m_str;
      OPEN m_curs FOR m_sql;
      loop
          FETCH m_curs INTO m_ret;
          exit when m_curs%notfound;
          dbms_output.put_line(m_ret);
      end loop;
      CLOSE m_curs;

end;

List

Is it possible to pass a comma seperated list of variables to make up a portion of the in clause in a stored procedure

I have a list of variables IdList that looks like this (1,2,3,4,5,66,77,88,someothernumbers)

PROCEDURE MyProc
(

        IdList IN VARCHAR
        SelectCursor OUT SelectRefCursor

)

IS
BEGIN
OPEN SelectCursor FOR

 SELECT          * 
 FROM            MyTable
WHERE           ID IN ( IdList );

EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
....

END MyProc;

thanks
bob
