Here's one way:

define delete_date_format = 'dd/mm/yy'

col old_nls_date_format noprint new_value old_nls_date_format

select value old_nls_date_format
from nls_session_parameters
where parameter = 'NLS_DATE_FORMAT'
/

alter session set nls_date_format = '&&delete_date_format';

accept delete_date date prompt "Please Enter the Delete-To Date in DD/MM/YY Format:"

begin

   delete_commit('delete from xyz where timestamp <= to_date(''&&delete_date'',''&&delete_date_format'')',1000); end;
/

alter session set nls_date_format = '&&old_nls_date_format';

Hi Guys,

I have the following delete-commit procedure (see below). The way it is called is as follows :

exec delete_commit('delete from xyz where timestamp <= to_date(''24/05/03'',''dd/mm/yy'')',1000)

Is there a way I can pass the date (timestamp)as a variable so that the script doesnt have to be physically modified each time this procedure is executed??

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Rgds

Procedure:

CREATE OR REPLACE procedure delete_commit

        finished                        boolean;
