Object Invalid error in PL/SQL

Question

Hi,
This is Pat.
I am writing simple queries on my oracle 8i
and they are executing correctly.
But when i include them in a procedure the procedure
gets created with compilation errors.
also when i execute the procedure it gives me an error
saying :
OBJECT.<login_name>.<procudure_name> is invalid.
Since the query is running on the SQL prompt it has no problems
and the syntax for a procedure is made by juss
adding
create procedure procedureone
as
begin
<query>
end;
i donno y isnt it working..??
any insights.
plzz help.

Answer 1

I am executing the select statements on SQL prompt and i am getting the desired output.
but i am selecting several attributes of the table and displaying them after implementing a join with other tables.
i have not included INTO in the select clause.
If i use into then how can i display all the tuples of the results...??
I will get only one value into the variable after writing INTO.
do i need to use a loop.
here is a similar query i am tryin to execute which doesnt work when put inside a procedure.
create or replace procedure abc
AS
BEGIN
select one,two,three,(four*five) AS Total
from xyz,pqr
where <join of 2 tables>
END;
how do i use INTO with this and still display all the results..??
