Hi,

1.Can I rollback after doing a truncate table (it seems to me that I can' t) e.g.

       Execute Immediate 'Truncate Table '|| TablaNevTomb(i);

       Execute Immediate
          'Begin '||
            'Insert into '|| TablaNevTomb(i) ||' (Select * From 
X$_'||TablaNevTomb(i)||');'||
          'End;';

     Exception
       When others Then RollBack

2. Is there a way to use a command with more than one word in Pl/Sql without using it dynamically?

For example I can use "Truncate table" only with Execute immediate within a Pl/Sql block.

3. I have a statement in a package:

  Insert into A

     ( Select Col1 ,MyFunction(Col1)
         from B );

If the MyFunction function is made with "create or replace function" everything works perfectly,
but if the same function is declared within the package, I get the error message:
PLS-00231 function 'string' may not be used in SQL

Thank you for your help
