Bind variable as where clause

Question

hello,
we want to build an dynamic sql IR. so when a user logs into our application we have an page process that fills an application item :F_ITEM_WHERE with part of the where clause from an IR. On the page with the IR we have as region source something similiar to:
SELECT test_api_per_cus.get_per_name(id_per_cus) as Customer,
test_api_per_cus.get_per_cus_nr(id_per_cus) as "Cus.-Nr",
vtr_nr AS "VS-Nr."
id_vtr,
id_per_cus
FROM test_vtr
WHERE test_vtr.id_grp = :F_ID_GRP
AND test_vtr.id_per_cus IN
*(SELECT id_per_cus*
FROM viva_per_cus
WHERE LEVEL BETWEEN test_api_per_emo_r_tree.get_per_emp_r_tree_from(:F_ID_PER_EMP,
*:F_ID_GRP) AND*
test_api_per_emp_r_tree.get_per_mit_r_tree_to(:F_ID_PER_EMP,
*:F_ID_GRP)*
START WITH per_cus_nr =
test_api_per_emp_r_tree.get_per_emp_r_tree_tree(:F_ID_PER_EMP,
*:F_ID_GRP)*
CONNECT BY PRIOR per_cus_nr = per_cus_number
AND PRIOR id_grp = :F_ID_GRP)
AND EXISTS
so we want outsourcing the marked part of the where clause into :F_ITEM_WHERE. The result is as following:
SELECT test_api_per_cus.get_per_name(id_per_cus) as Customer,
test_api_per_cus.get_per_cus_nr(id_per_cus) as "Cus.-Nr",
vtr_nr AS "VS-Nr."
id_vtr,
id_per_cus
FROM test_vtr
WHERE test_vtr.id_grp = :F_ID_GRP
AND test_vtr.id_per_cus IN *|| :F_ITEM_WHERE ||*
AND EXISTS
Here says Apex that the Query cannot be parsed...if we fill the item plus 'AND test_vtr.id_per_cus IN' so our statement looks like this:
SELECT test_api_per_cus.get_per_name(id_per_cus) as Customer,
test_api_per_cus.get_per_cus_nr(id_per_cus) as "Cus.-Nr",
vtr_nr AS "VS-Nr."
id_vtr,
id_per_cus
FROM test_vtr
WHERE test_vtr.id_grp = :F_ID_GRP
*:F_ITEM_WHERE*
AND EXISTS
the query can parse but after that running apex says: bind :F_ITEM_WHERE not possible
Anyone got an solution for this? I think it´s only a syntax thing or something...
Thanks Daniel

Answer 1

When posting code on the forum, put {noformat}{noformat} (with the curly brackets and the word code in lowercase) above and below your code like this...
{noformat}{noformat}
SELECT *
FROM emp
{noformat}{noformat}
It will then appear like this, preserving formatting...SELECT *
FROM emp
Please post your code, properly formatted of +exactly+ what you have put in the region source. I'm not convinced that you need dynamic SQL at all.
