Oracle krijgt tabelnamen op basis van kolomwaarde

Deze query kan in één stap worden gedaan met behulp van de (niet-verouderde) XMLTABLE.

Voorbeeldschema

--Table-1 and Table-2 match the criteria.
--Table-3 has the right column but not the right value.
--Table-4 does not have the right column.
create table "Table-1" as select '1234' employee_id from dual;
create table "Table-2" as select '1234' employee_id from dual;
create table "Table-3" as select '4321' employee_id from dual;
create table "Table-4" as select 1          id from dual;
