Accecpting something from the user inside PL-SQL

[Wolf]

Hi!!

I want to do something like the following

PROMPT Enter something please;
ACCEPT my_answer;

But inside a PL-SQL block. How can I do it? I could use DBMS_OUTPUT to replace the prompt, but what can I use instead of the ACCEPT ? (I search for a DBMS_InPUT package but that doesn't seem to exists :-) ).


Any help would be appreciated!
