Your goal is to loop through all tables in schema HR, count the records and display the results? The reason your procedure shows the error is because tab_var and not the content of the variable with that name is treated as the tablename for the SELECT statement.
You'll have to use dynamic SQL for your task:
Code:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE tab_row_count
AS
   v_row_count NUMBER;
BEGIN
   FOR c_tables IN (SELECT table_name 
                      FROM user_tables)
   LOOP
      EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ' || c_tables.table_name INTO v_row_count;
      dbms_output.put_line('There are ' || v_row_count || ' rows in table ' || c_tables.table_name);
   END LOOP;
END;
/

EDIT: seems like Gandof989 was a few minutes faster but came to the same conclusion Smilie

DELETE(7)							   SQL Commands 							 DELETE(7)

NAME
DELETE - delete rows of a table SYNOPSIS
DELETE FROM [ ONLY ] table [ WHERE condition ] INPUTS table The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing table. condition This is an SQL selection query which returns the rows which are to be deleted. Refer to the SELECT statement for further description of the WHERE clause. OUTPUTS DELETE count Message returned if items are successfully deleted. The count is the number of rows deleted. If count is 0, no rows were deleted. DESCRIPTION
DELETE removes rows which satisfy the WHERE clause from the specified table. If the condition (WHERE clause) is absent, the effect is to delete all rows in the table. The result is a valid, but empty table. Tip: TRUNCATE [truncate(7)] is a PostgreSQL extension which provides a faster mechanism to remove all rows from a table. By default DELETE will delete tuples in the table specified and all its sub-tables. If you wish to only update the specific table men- tioned, you should use the ONLY clause. You must have write access to the table in order to modify it, as well as read access to any table whose values are read in the condition. USAGE
Remove all films but musicals: DELETE FROM films WHERE kind <> 'Musical'; SELECT * FROM films; code | title | did | date_prod | kind | len -------+---------------------------+-----+------------+---------+------- UA501 | West Side Story | 105 | 1961-01-03 | Musical | 02:32 TC901 | The King and I | 109 | 1956-08-11 | Musical | 02:13 WD101 | Bed Knobs and Broomsticks | 111 | | Musical | 01:57 (3 rows) Clear the table films: DELETE FROM films; SELECT * FROM films; code | title | did | date_prod | kind | len ------+-------+-----+-----------+------+----- (0 rows) COMPATIBILITY
