I realize that documentation is horrible stuff, and it's much more reasonable to get the information from others, but ...

Pro*C/C++ Precompiler Programmer's Guide (58) Oracle Objects for OLE Developer's Guide (53) PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference (36) Oracle Call Interface Programmer's Guide (33) Pro*COBOL Programmer's Guide (32)
SQL Reference (28)
Application Developer's Guide - Large Objects (28)

The number in brackets tells us how many times the term 'Bind variable' is referenced in each of these 10gR2 books at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=3

Stoopid things, these manuals. The examples they show don't match up to my environment - they use different variable names. <g>

Even worser are the demos, tutorials and example code provided at http://otn.oracle.com under the sample code and tutorials tabs.
