PLEASE HELP with declaring variables in oracle DB

hello all,

i am having trouble declaring data in oracle DB. i used

define my-variable-name = 'hello oracle';

but it seems to be bound to the session. ( data disappears when i log out and log in again ).

how can i declare a variable to the DB table space permanantly? does any one know?

thanks. Received on Sun Jun 16 2002 - 21:41:13 CDT
