    Thumbs up Execute immediate

    hi all,

    i am trying to recreate the sequences using execute immediate.


    FOR r_cur IN c_cur LOOP
    str1 := (select max(' ||r_tsr.tbl_seq_ref_col_nm|| ')+1' ||
    'from ' || r_tsr.tbl_seq_ref_tbl_nm;

    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE str1;

    END;

    could you let me know any way to caputure MAX value from above SQL statment.

    because i want to use same MAX value for recreating the Sequence


    i.e.

    str3:= ' CREATE sequence CNV_TEST minvalue 1 maxvalue 100000 start with || max_val || increment by 1 cache 20';
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE str3;


    thanks in advance.

    Don't you need to take into account the owner? Drop the sequence before re-creating it (ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object)?

    SQL> desc dba_sequences
    Name
    -----------------------
    SEQUENCE_OWNER
    SEQUENCE_NAME
    MIN_VALUE
    MAX_VALUE
    INCREMENT_BY
    CYCLE_FLAG
    ORDER_FLAG
    CACHE_SIZE
    LAST_NUMBER

    Do any primary keys in your data rely upon sequence-generated values? Why not start it with one plus the last_number?

    Do you really want to record 999999999999999999999999999 for a max value?

    Otherwise:

    select 'create sequence '||sequence_owner||
    '.'||sequence_name||' start with '||min_value||
    ' maxvalue '||max_value||';'
    from dba_sequences
    /

    Spool this out, edit it as necessary, save it as a sql file, then run it.

    execute immediate 'select max(' ||r_tsr.tbl_seq_ref_col_nm|| ')+1 from ' || r_tsr.tbl_seq_ref_tbl_nm INTO my_number;
