Setting wrap off caused the first line of the header to be printed and
skipped everything after the first chr(10) (header lines 2 and 3 and data
line 1), even when I bumped the linesize to 2000. This is just frustrating.
I wish I was back on a unix box so I could just do a grep -v and get rid of
the extra lines.
Thanks,
Ken Naim

Hello Ken,
Do any of the columns in your output wrap? A long text value
that wraps to two lines will cause SQL*Plus to skip a line.
If that's the case, you might try SET WRAP OFF.
