In MYTABLE there are courses and their predecessor courses. What I am trying to is to find the courses to be taken after the specified course. I am getting missing SELECT keyword error. Why I am getting this error although I have SELECT statement in FOR statement ? Where am I doing wrong ?
DECLARE
coursename varchar2(200) := 'COURSE_101';
str varchar2(200);
BEGIN
WITH DATA AS
(select (select course_name
from MYTABLE
WHERE predecessors like ('''%' || coursename||'%''')
) str
from dual
)
FOR cursor1 IN (SELECT str FROM DATA)
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(cursor1);
END LOOP;
end;
