Hello, David, Andreas,

Thank you for the suggestions. The challenge is that I need a ref cursor
because it is some arbitrary amount of data coming back from the server
in a cursor. Your suggestion shows a defined row but I do not know what
the row looks like so I cannot define a type beforehand.

However, your comments have me wondering if there is a different route I
can take. Is there anything that is a 'generic row of data'? I see the
type "record" and I'm going to give that a try.

Thanks again for the prompt response and ideas!

-Doug

Hi Doug

I dont know Brio either but keep in mind that tables and views are
allready defined types which you could use here.

So if your procedure just selects a few rows from a view or table but
should return all collumns from the source you don't have to define a
return type.
