Body
I've been trying without success to add a reference to a public synonym in a package or stored procedure in oracle for a while, and I'm wondering if there are solutions to this problem short of accessing the tables directly. For instance: <pre><code>CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_func AS test_int INTEGER; BEGIN select count(*) INTO test_int FROM test_synonym; END; / </code></pre> I know this procedure does nothing, but it is only an example. Where the table 'test_synonym' is actually a public synonym to a table in another schema. I do have select permissions to that table, but trying to compile this repeatedly gives me the error: <pre><code>Error(5,38): PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist </code></pre> Thanks for your time.

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
