Oracle Database Interview Question:

How To Insert a Record into a Table?

Submitted by: Administrator

If you have a RECORD variable with data fields matching a table structure, you can insert a row to this table with this RECORD variable using the INSERT statement as shown in the example below:

CREATE TABLE emp_temp AS SELECT * FROM employees;

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ggl_CENTER AS
manager employees%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT * INTO manager FROM employees
WHERE employee_id = 100;
manager.employee_id := 299;
INSERT INTO emp_temp VALUES manager;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('# rows inserted = '
|| SQL%ROWCOUNT);
END;
/
# rows inserted = 1
