How to define a record variable to store a table row?
Answers
If you have a table, and want to define a RECORD variable to store all the data elements of a row from that table, you can use table_name%ROWTYPE to define the RECORD variable as shown in the following sample script:

CREATE TABLE student (id NUMBER(5) PRIMARY KEY,
first_name VARCHAR(80) NOT NULL,
last_name VARCHAR(80) NOT NULL);
Table created.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE FYI_CENTER AS
best_student student%ROWTYPE;
another_student student%ROWTYPE;
class_name VARCHAR2(80);
BEGIN
class_name := 'FYI Center 2006';
best_student.first_name := 'The';
best_student.last_name := 'Best';
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Best student ID = '
|| best_student.id);
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Best student = ' ||
best_student.first_name || ' '
|| best_student.last_name);
END;
/
