The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

TOAD, SQL Editor, and EXEC'ing a Stored Procedure?

Asked by lisfolks in Oracle 3rd Party Tools

Tags: toad, procedure, stored, sql

I'm using TOAD for Oracle. I'm trying to execute a stored procedure with two parameters - one IN and one OUT. It looks like this:

PROCEDURE get_stuff (
parm_1 IN VARCHAR2,
parm_2 OUT currefcursor)

In the SQL Editor window in TOAD, I've tried various things to no avail. I'm sure this is something simple that I'm missing, 'cause I've tried all sorts of things I've seen in other solutions here at Experts Exchange, but can't get past various errors. Here's what I think should work from what I've seen here:

var p1 VARCHAR2 := 'some text';
var p2 currefcursor;

EXEC get_stuff( :p1, :p2 );

When I run this, though, the SQL Editor pops up a window titled 'Variables' that appears to be looking for a value. No matter whether I put something in the 'Value' textbox or not, when I click OK, it says:

ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement

and highlights the 'var' in front of p1.

Please tell me what I'm missing!
