Calling function in procedure...A tricky one

Question

hi guys,
Here is a tricky thing ...
There is actually a Whole book which has Risk and XYZ portfolio books and other books as well.
The below procedure actually select the risk books based on FLAG =N else it will select all the books.
Now i need to modify this....
Here is a thing .....instead of selecting all the books it should select XYZ portfolio list.
Actually there is function in a package called PKG.TEST_func, This function lists all the books
Now all i need to do is call this function in the procedure in the else part and pass the parameter for XYZ portfolio books.
HOW DO I DO THIS????
create or replace procedure TEST
flg in varchar2 ,
     cur_out out sys_refcursor
as
begin
if upper(flg) = 'N' then
     open cur_out for
          select distinct Book
          from bookmgr.VW_book@bookmgr_dbln
          where RISK_REP_FLG = 'N'
ORDER BY book;
Else
open cur_out for
select distinct Book
from bookmgr.VW_book@bookmgr_dbln;
end if;
end test;
Please let me know if u have any questions....
Thank you so much in Advance....I m kinda of newbe to this world. I appriciate you help..

Answer 1

It will be something like ...
Else
    cur_out :=PKG.TEST_func('XYZ portfolio list') ;
end if;Of course,m it is your system, so only you know the actually value of the parameter.
