Inserting Syntax into an Editor
To copy syntax into an editor:
- Make sure the Program Unit editor or Stored Program Unit editor is the current
(most recently selected) window.
- Place the cursor in the editor where you want to insert the syntax.
- In the Syntax Palette, click the PL/SQL tab
or the Built-ins tab.
- Choose a PL/SQL category or a Built-in package from the drop-down list.
When you click a category or a package, the PL/SQL language elements or PL/SQL
constructs that are available for selection appear in the list area below.
- Choose a PL/SQL language element or construct in the list area.
When you click a PL/SQL language element or construct, the syntax appears
in the display area that is below the list area.
- Click Insert to copy the selected syntax.
The selected PL/SQL language element or construct is inserted into the active
editor at the current cursor position.
- Replace all lowercase items that are not comments with the appropriate values.
Items within comments are optional. Reserved words are in uppercase.
