Is there someway I can make a parameter or variable of some sort to pass into my PL/SQL cursor shown below to change the value of the date without having to rebuild the package each time??

Can I alter this value dynamically ??

   and trx_date > '31/MAR/04'

any ideas would be appreciate

thanks in advance
