PLS-00231: function 'string' may not be used in SQL

Question Posted / guest

Answer Posted / guest

Cause: A proscribed function was used in a SQL statement.
Certain functions such as SQLCODE and SQLERRM can be used
only in procedural statements.

Action: Remove the function call from the SQL statement. Or,
replace the function call with a local variable. For
example, the following statement is illegal: INSERT INTO
errors VALUES (SQLCODE, SQLERRM); However, you can assign
the values of SQLCODE and SQLERRM to local variables, then
use the variables in the SQL statement, as follows: err_num
:= SQLCODE; err_msg := SQLERRM; INSERT INTO errors VALUES
(err_num, err_msg);
