The package you need is dbms_sql.sql, which comes with Oracle. It is on (UNIX) $HOME/rdbms/admin. Read the script itself, then call Oracle and ask for the faxback document on dbms_sql. The cd-rom documentation on this subject is incorrect, so disragard it. Rhe fax is actually pretty good. Also, there was an article a couple of issues ago in Oracle magazine that had a pretty good discussion of dynamic sql with pl/sql. The magazine is a freebie and they will generally send back issues on request. Call Oracle to get the number for the magazine.
