Are you getting an error message?

Syntax and documentation are available on ( among other places ) tahiti.oracle.com ...

I've been TRYING to look all weekend but nothing comes up. Can somebody just please answer my question and help me out?

I want to use a structure in a pipeline function that I will have to define a type of and the base structure will be a table with one or two columns which are defined as a nested table. I can get the VARRAY to work but can't figure out how to do it with Nested Tables. Received on Sun Feb 08 2009 - 18:31:00 CST
