Ok, I am trying to create a sql generator. I am trying to start out simple. What I want to do it to pass an owner, table name into a procedure and have it create a procedure for this owner table name In this case I want to create a procedure that will create a procedure tablename_select_all_proc that will select * from owner.tablename

The syntax when I pull it apart looks ok. But when I run it I get an ora_00911, the procedure and output are below.

It looks to me as if it is splicing the lines up. Instead of using the execute immediate do I have to use dbms_sql to parse and fetch this sql? Or is there a way to do this?

platform 10G, Solaris.

Thanks,

Kathy
