I have a procedure which return only single row.I want to store that data in a webfocus variable.

My webfocus code is given below
 
-SET &NO_OF_RECORDS=500;
SQL SQLORA SET SERVER &&CONNECTION_NAME
SQL SQLORA
EX PRC_LIST &NO_OF_RECORDS;
TABLE FILE SQLOUT
PRINT *
ON TABLE HOLD AS DATAFILE
END
TABLE FILE DATAFILE
PRINT
T
END


I want to store T value in a Webfocus variable say &PageCount

Oracle procedure code is given below
  
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE "PRC_LIST"(NOOFRECORDS IN NUMBER DEFAULT NULL,
                                       RC1         OUT SYS_REFCURSOR) AS
  RECCNT     NUMBER(6, 2);
  TOTALPAGES NUMBER(10, 0);

BEGIN
  TOTALPAGES := 0;
  BEGIN
    SELECT COUNT(1)
      INTO RECCNT
      FROM vw_test_piece;
  
    TOTALPAGES := CEIL(RECCNT / NOOFRECORDS);
  
    OPEN RC1 FOR
      SELECT ROUND(TOTALPAGES) AS T FROM DUAL;
  
  END;
END "PRC_LIST";


Please help.

-READFILE DATAFILE

will give you a variable named &T containing the value.

There should only be one row in the input file DATAFILE.

Trilochan's signature says 7.6.1, I don't think READFILE is int that version.

Best to HOLD FORMAT ALPHA and then -READ.
