You are trying to run a sql like this:

SELECT 1 FROM DUAL WHERE :BIND = 1;

SQL*Plus identifies :BIND as a bind variable, but you haven't declared one in your session yet. To declare the bind variable use the VAR(IABLE) command.

VAR BIND NUMBER

Then, you can assign a value to the variable.

EXEC :BIND := 1

Run the select again to confirm that the bind variable is now set. Note that you can also use this variable to hold results from single-row queries.

SELECT 1 INTO :BIND FROM DUAL;
