Read value from user and use it in Oracle SQL query
Guys can anyone just tell me whether i can pass a value(from UNIX SCRIPT) as an ARGUMENT in Oracle Query?
e.g.

Code:
echo "enter value"
read value
 
insert into tablename where col=$value /*something like this*/

echo "enter value"
read value
sqlplus -s uname/passwd@DBSID  <<EOF
set feedback off;
insert into tablename where col=$value /*something like this*/
exit;
EOF
