I want to install a ceiling fan but I have no power in the ceiling however I want to use the wall switch which now controls a wall outlet to control the fan.
I also want to make the wall outlet constantly on.
Any help?

Same advice I gave Syturria"

Do you have any experience in doing household wiring? If no, then the first thing to do is to read a few books on the subject. You can try the public library or you can purchase a couple of beginner's books at the home center. One of the best is Wiring Simplified and its price is less than ten dollars.

What you desire is a fairly simple job but will entail cutting into the wall and ceiling.
