making a message body variable from an oracle select statement
I am looking to create a message body variable in a stored procedure by assigning results of a select statement to it.
Can I do that?
In other words, something like:
Declare message_body varchar2
message_body = select * from table1;
Can I do that?

Declare message_body varchar2
message_body = select * from table1;

I am sending the results of the select statement to another procedure but I want the results to have column headings followed by the data.

That is a sqlplus thing. In PL/SQL if/when you are dealing with a cursor, you don't get column headings.
>>I am sending the results of the select statement to another procedure
When I see message_body, I think email. If you are just passing data around, I wouldn't do it as a CLOB. I would use a cursor, XML or some other PL/SQL collection object.
