Here's one way:
define delete_date_format = 'dd/mm/yy'
col old_nls_date_format noprint new_value old_nls_date_format
select value old_nls_date_format
from nls_session_parameters
where parameter = 'NLS_DATE_FORMAT'
/
alter session set nls_date_format = '&&delete_date_format';
accept delete_date date prompt "Please Enter the Delete-To Date in DD/MM/YY Format:"
begin
delete_commit('delete from xyz where timestamp <=
to_date(''&&delete_date'',''&&delete_date_format'')',1000);
end;
/
alter session set nls_date_format = '&&old_nls_date_format';

Subject: Help with procedure.
Hi Guys,
I have the following delete-commit procedure (see below). The way it is called is as follows :
exec delete_commit('delete from xyz where timestamp <= to_date(''24/05/03'',''dd/mm/yy'')',1000)
Is there a way I can pass the date (timestamp)as a variable so that the script doesnt have to be physically modified each time this procedure is executed??
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
