.
In the above code it selects the information for the student with the id of 156, how do I change it so that it selects all students from the table instead of just the one?
Any help appreciated.just remove the condition tht where student id = 156:
SELECT *
INTO student_rec
FROM student
above script will select all the student in student and store it into the sudent_rec .
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001, 'Student with id = 156 is not in the Database');
when you want to raise the exeception just write it ther is no record in the table instad of student with id= 156 is not in the database.|||Hi,
Use a cursor & remove the Hard coded value 156 in the query.

"-1422 ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows"|||Hi,
Use CURSOR to avoid this error. Because you can fetch only one row into the record type student_rec . When the value 156 is harcoded in the query , exactly one row is fetched into student_rec . So it works fine. But once you remove the hard coded value 156 from the query, all the records are fetched . Since the record type student_rec can accept only one value, it displays the error ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows. To avoid this error & fetch all the records into student_rec, use a CURSOR.

EXCEPTION
WHEN no_data_found THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001, 'Student with id = 156 is not in the Database');
WHEN others THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(SQLCODE || ' '|| substr(SQLERRM,1,80));
END;
All that does is potentially hide errors from the user and allow inconsistent partial transactions to be committed. It should be simply:
EXCEPTION
WHEN no_data_found THEN
RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20001, 'Student with id = 156 is not in the Database');
END;
