i can't really remember the call command in pl/sql. where do you call it from? if you are in a pl/sql block you don't need a call but you might want to assign the return value to a variable! in sql*plus you need to assign the return value to a variable.

The first thing that strikes me is that you seem to be calling a function like a procedure. Try "v_somenumber := RAKNAUPP.FAKTURANUMMER".

HTH! GL!

I have the following package defined....

PACKAGE RAKNAUPP AS
FUNCTION FAKTURANUMMER RETURN NUMBER;
FUNCTION MEDLEMSNUMMER RETURN NUMBER;
FUNCTION OCRNUMMER RETURN NUMBER;
FUNCTION INBETNUMMER RETURN NUMBER;
END RAKNAUPP;
.
.
.

It works fine, except when I try to run it with call:

call RAKNAUPP.FAKTURANUMMER;

Then I get:

ORA-06576: not a valid function or procedure name call <ERROR>'raknaupp.fakturanummer'

And I'm about at my wits end here... I can't for my life figure out why this isn't working as it is suposed to!

Could someone please figure out what I am doing wrong?????????
