LOCATION clause

edited Feb 5, 2014 9:55AM in SQL Language (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered
I need to read a text file into a PL/SQL procedure.  I am considering creating an exteral table for this.  My problem is that the file will not always have the same name.  Can a variable be used iin the location-specifier in the LOCATION clause of CREATE TABLE?

Howdy, Stranger!
