Sure. Just change your cursor to:

PROCEDURE MyProc
(

        IdList IN VARCHAR
        SelectCursor OUT SelectRefCursor

)

TYPE refRS IS REF CURSOR;

  SelectCursor varchar2(1000) := 'SELECT          * ' ||
                                 ' FROM            MyTable ' ||
                                 ' WHERE           ID IN (' ||   IdList ||

')';
Cursor_Row MyTable%Rowtype;

   IS
BEGIN
   OPEN refRS FOR SelectCursor;
   Fetch refRS into Cursor_Row;

EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
....

END MyProc;

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
