You used an incorrect name for the procedure. Here is one that compiles flawlessly:

CREATE OR REPLACE Procedure RTFM
Begin
Select A.Pc_session_id From pt_client_event A

       where A.pc_event_op = 'LAUNCH'
       and A.pc_date >=SYSDATE -1

minus
Select B.Pc_session_id From pt_client_event B

       where B.Pc_event_op = 'LOGOUT'
       and B.pc_date >=SYSDATE -1;

End;

The procedure will now compile run without a glitch. It will not do anything, but it will compile. Name is everything! Oh, what the heck, it has been a long day in the office!

I want to create a stored procedure that takes the following information and puts it into a table. How would I do this?

CREATE OR REPLACE Procedure Used_license as Begin
Select A.Pc_session_id From pt_client_event A where A.pc_event_op = 'LAUNCH' and A.pc_date >=SYSDATE -1
minus
Select B.Pc_session_id From pt_client_event B where B.Pc_event_op = 'LOGOUT' and B.pc_date >=SYSDATE -1
End;

I am tying to do it this way but getting errors:

PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "END" when expecting one of the following:

& - + ; / for mod rem an exponent (**) and or group having intersect minus order start union where connect ||
