Re: Views and Stored Procedures

If by stored procedure you mean a database function, the answer is yes. You can simply use the value returned by the function as a column in your view.

For example,
  If you had a function named ACTION1 that took a single parameter, could create a view as follows:

create view test1 as select ename,action1(enum) action_enu m from employee;

The only caveat is that the function must not change the state of the database. (The only DML it may perform is a SELECT. No UPDATES,DELETES, or INSERTS). "tkestell" <tkestell_at_comcast.net> wrote in message news:foYYb.356311$na.534883_at_attbi_s04...
