Hi I am quite new to Oracle SQL Developer. It looks like a very simple thing, but it is driving me nuts.
DEFINE START_DATE = "to_date('03/01/2018', 'dd/mm/yyyy')";
DEFINE END_DATE = "to_date('01/06/2018', 'dd/mm/yyyy')";
SELECT
SOMETABLE.JOB_BASE_NUM,
SOMETABLE.CUSTOMER_CODE
FROM
SOMETABLE
WHERE
SOMETABLE.WORK_END_DATE>= &START_DATE
AND SOMETABLE.WORK_END_DATE < &END_DATE;
It always ask me to Enter value for END_DATE:
Can someone help please? Thank you.
Edit:
I run this in SQL Developer:
sql oracle oracle-sqldeveloper

Are you running all the Lines in the script as one batch or just SELECT?

By the way, Oracle supports the ANSI standard syntax for date literals, e.g.date '2018-01-03'

Remove the semicolon here:
DEFINE START_DATE = "to_date('03/01/2018', 'dd/mm/yyyy')"
DEFINE END_DATE = "to_date('01/06/2018', 'dd/mm/yyyy')"
The semicolon is separating your define variable from your sql.
