Re: [cx-oracle-users] cx_Oracle CREATE TABLE AS returns ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number

[Anthony T. <ant...@gm...>]

No special syntax is required for create table. Illegal variable
name/number means that (a) the name you are using doesn't match the name
you are passing or (b) the name you are using is illegal. These can
sometimes be tough to find! When this sort of thing happens to me I simply
replace bits and pieces until I figure out what the trouble is. Good luck!
