You cannot build dynamic SQL this way in PL/SQL.
 
You will need to build the 2nd select before executing it.  Look at the
docs for 'EXECUTE IMMEDIATE'.

Hi All:
My procedure must list only tables where max(length (formula))>150. I
have about 100 schemas and each has FIELDCUSTOM table.
 
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE data_count is
owner varchar2 (40);
i number (10);
BEGIN
FOR n IN (SELECT owner FROM dba_tables WHERE table_name ='FIELDCUSTOM')
LOOP
    SELECT max(length (formula)) INTO i FROM  n.owner.FIELDCUSTOM;
   IF i>=150 THEN
   dbms_output.put_line (owner);
     ELSE
      null;
    END IF;
    END LOOP;
END;
 
Problem in line:
SELECT max(length (formula)) INTO i FROM  n.owner.FIELDCUSTOM
error sql command not properly ended.
 
Thanks.
