Hi,
When modifying one existing pro*c program,
i am getting the following error.

01036, 00000, "illegal variable name/number"
// *Cause: Unable to find bind context on user side
// *Action: Make sure that the variable being bound is in the sql statement.

I read few articles on the net but somehow i could not fix the bug.
I would be grateful if someone can provide me more details on what might
cause this error.
I suspect i get this error in a function which has some
sql statements which run for more than 10 to 15 times till the required
data is found.
Thanks in advance.
Giridhar

Hi...,

Check whether the bind variable is defined locally in that called function... if it is global then it will through the error like "1036"....

Hope this will solve ur problem.....
