Procedures are written in the PL/SQL programming language. You can use the Notepad text editor to write a procedure. Save each procedure with a .sql file name extension.
Log on to an Oracle database with Oracle's SQL*Plus tool. It submits SQL and PL/SQL statements to the Oracle database.
The SQL statement CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE creates, compiles and saves a procedure on an Oracle database, regardless of whether the procedure contained compilation errors or not.
Run a procedure stored on an Oracle database from the SQL*Plus tool. Use the EXECUTE statement, or an anonymous PL/SQL block to call your procedure.
The clause OR REPLACE from the SQL statement CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE overwrites an existing stored procedure on the Oracle database.
View a procedure's compilation errors with the SQL*Plus command SHOW ERRORS.
