I am using Oracle 10g database and trying to run a procedure using SQL commands.
create or replace procedure "exam" is
begin
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Test');
end;
Then click on Run button. It shows: "procedure created".
When I try to execute it using:
execute exam;
then click on Run button, it shows:
ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement
Thanks for your help.
Just noticed a detail in your question. You press run
button. Thus, you must be using an IDE.
You cannot use execute
in IDEs - it is an sql*plus
command. It might work in Oracle SQL Developer though, but I wouldn't use it there anyway;
Try
begin
exam;
end;
