| Hi Chris,
|
| ever heard about the WHERE clause ;-) ?
| Try this:
| SELECT text FROM user_source
| WHERE name = 'MYPROCEDURE' -- names are upper case by default
| ORDER BY line;
|
| Does it look better?

Hi Guido.

You're a legend :-).

I have just started learning this stuff(a request from my boss). I actually did try a where clause, but without the single quotes, and in lowercase :-).

Thank you very much. I will be back with more questions in the future, I'm sure :-).

Cheers.
