Hi, I have a quick question about using sqlplus here. There is a
requirement to select 1 column and spool out to a plain text file. The
data type if varchar2(1500) but most of rows are only 100 characters
long, only few are >1000 characters. I would like the spool file have
one line for each row, doest that mean I have NO other choice but ' set
linesize 1500 ' ? is there another way to tell sqlplus do not wrap into
new line for one table row?
My concern is that 'set linesize 1500' makes the spool file too big
because those white spaces.
Thanks,
Lei
