    How to compile a invalid stored procedure into another stored procedure?

    Hi,

    I wonder how to compile a invalid stored procedure into another stored procedure?

    The first proc is creating some tables ( and is valid ) the second proc is based on those new tables ( but while compliling these tables they do not excist yet) and is invalid.

    How to accomplish this running these procs within a package?

    Regards

    Only by using dynamic SQL (EXECUTE IMMEDIATE or DBMS_SQL or ref cursors) when referencing those nonexistant tables in the second procedure.

    Thanx for the quick reply.
    I'm familiar with "execute immediate" and "DBMS_SQL" but do not know how to use it in this situation.( thats why I asked )

    Can you give me an example?
