How to Add an SQL script to another existing SQL script

Question

I have just created an SQL script and i need a way to join it with several other existing SQL scripts.
I don't want to change any of the other scipts, i just need to add my new script on to the existing ones.
I've looked at some of the functions and they don't seem to work for me.
Let me use this as an example.
Here is my new script:
SELECT DISTINCT max(case when EC.EQUIPMENT_CLASS like '%_ERT' then 'Y' else 'N' end) over (partition by E.CURRENT_SERVICE_ID) as ERT
FROM EQUIPMENT E,
EQUIPMENT_TYPE ET,
EQUIPMENT_CLASS EC
WHERE E.EQUIPMENT_TYPE_ID = ET.EQUIPMENT_TYPE_ID
and EC.EQUIPMENT_CLASS = ET.EQUIPMENT_CLASS
and E.CURRENT_SERVICE_ID = 38514
I need to add this to an existing script such as this:
SELECT E.EQUIPMENT_NUMBER,
E.EQUIPMENT_TYPE_ID,
ET.EQUIPMENT_TYPE_DESC
FROM EQUIPMENT E,
EQUIPMENT_CATEGORY ECAT,
EQUIPMENT_TYPE ET,
EQUIPMENT_CLASS EC
WHERE ET.EQUIPMENT_TYPE_ID = E.EQUIPMENT_TYPE_ID
and EC.EQUIPMENT_CLASS = ET.EQUIPMENT_CLASS
and EC.EQUIPMENT_CATEGORY = ECAT.EQUIPMENT_CATEGORY
and E.EQUIPMENT_ID = 113950
* The Reason why i can't just add the line i need together with the existing script, is because it's giving me invalid data from what i want to see. When i run them separately i get the desired results.
Not sure if anything can be done like this or not, but if so, i'd appreciate a shove in the right direction.
thanks

Do you simply want to append your newly created query to the file that contains an existing query ?

Not sure how this is a SQL or PL/SQL related question, you'd probably want to just append the files using a text editor or maybe an OS command like cat or type.

You may want to explain how the data is different from what you are expecting. In any case, your queries do not end with the sql terminator - the ";" character or a forward slash "/" at the first column of a line after the query; maybe that's the culprit.
Consider this:
SQL>
SQL> host type c:\t1.sql
select first_name from employees where rownum = 1
SQL>
SQL> @c:\t1.sql
  2  /
FIRST_NAME
Ellen
SQL>
SQL> host type c:\t2.sql
select last_name from employees where rownum = 1
SQL> @c:\t2.sql
  2  /
LAST_NAME
Abel
SQL>
SQL> host type t3.sql
select first_name from employees where rownum = 1
select last_name from employees where rownum = 1
SQL> -- now, t3.sql contains both the queries of t1.sql and t2.sql
SQL> -- however, they do not end with the sql terminators
SQL>
SQL> @c:\t3.sql
  2  /
LAST_NAME
Abel
SQL> -- the first query was not executed...
SQL>
SQL> -- t3.sql has been fixed now
SQL> host type t3.sql
select first_name from employees where rownum = 1;
select last_name from employees where rownum = 1;
SQL> @c:\t3.sql
FIRST_NAME
Ellen
LAST_NAME
