ORA-01747: invalid user.table.column, table.column, or column specification

Question

Get the above error when the execute immediate is called in a loop

Update CustomersPriceGroups set  1AO00=:disc  Where cuno=:cuno
    Parameters:   disc=66 c         


        

Answer 1

It means that the Oracle parser thinks that one of your columns is not valid. This might be because you've incorrectly referenced a column, the column name is reserved word, or because you have a syntax error in the UPDATE statement that makes Oracle think that something which is not a column, is a column. It would really help to see the full statement that is being executed, the definition of the CustomersPriceGroups table and the full text of the exception being raised, as it will often tell which column is at fault.
