Accessing a Collection

You can access the members of a collection by querying the database view APEX_COLLECTIONS. The APEX_COLLECTIONS view has the following definition:

COLLECTION_NAME   NOT NULL VARCHAR2(255)
SEQ_ID            NOT NULL NUMBER 
C001                       VARCHAR2(4000)
C002                       VARCHAR2(4000)
C003                       VARCHAR2(4000)   
C004                       VARCHAR2(4000)   
C005                       VARCHAR2(4000)  
...
C050                       VARCHAR2(4000)
CLOB001                    CLOB   
MD5_ORIGINAL               VARCHAR2(4000)  

Use the APEX_COLLECTIONS view in an application just as you would use any other table or view in an application, for example:

SELECT c001, c002, c003
   FROM APEX_collections
 WHERE collection_name = 'FIREARMS'
