PLS-00486: select list cannot be enclosed in parentheses
Cause: In a SELECT statement, the select list was enclosed in parentheses, as in: 

SELECT (deptno, dname, loc) FROM dept INTO ... 

This breaks the rules of SQL syntax. Parentheses are not required because the keywords SELECT and FROM delimit the select list.
Action: Remove the parentheses enclosing the select list.
