You can use sql developer or Quest SQL Navigator to step through the code and figure out the specific command that is at issue. Without that information, it is hard to debug the code. have you figured out which statement it is hanging on?

I have a problem with a stored procedure which retrieves data from an external table and then updates oracle tables. When I run the sql statements by themselves it works fine, but inside the stored procedure it hangs. Could you please tell me what is wrong? The sp lives in the same schema as the oracle tables and external tables. I have granted read/write permissions to dba (the schema is a member of dba role). Thanks.
