Hi guys,

Question:


If this works:

sqlplus 
user/pass@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=MYORA)))"


Why does this not work:

exp 
user/pass@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=MYORA)))"


Error:

LRM-00116: syntax error at 'ADDRESS' following '('


Any tips and suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
