Hi Writting some informix migration scripts here and just got a bit stucked. When we invoke sql scripts in sqlplus with arguments such as @test.sql par1 par2 par3 par1, 2 and 3 can be treated as &1, &2 and &3 I have a situation where the number of arguments can vary so I can have from par1 only up to par3 inclusive. Basically does anyone know if there is something similar as $# in ksh but for SQLPLUS? Or anyway to treat do something like NVL('&2', ';') (this does not seem to work as it prompts and asks for a value) Thanks -- LSC
