I want to pass the name of a field in a table to a cursor then do a select and other things to that column.

something like:
I have a table MYTABLE with fields (A number, B NUMBER, C NUMBER);

  procedure hello(myvar IN VARCHAR2)
  IS

     CURSOR getme IS (select myvar from MYTABLE);   BEGIN
        do something here...
  END; hello('C');
hello('A');
...

Thanks for your input.
