I have viewnames stored in a database table in PL/SQL. I want to get aggregated column values from these views. How can I do it.

For example: I have table Employee which has column viewname. The viewname column has the name of the views. I have to query the views which are stored in the viewname column of Employee table.

For aggregration in SQL you can use this

SQL

SELECT AVG(Amount) FROM Expenses

But if your question meant different that this then please clarify more or you can add one example

Hope this helps if yes then accept and vote the answer otherwise revert back with your queries
