from dual

Hi,
it only stay on the first line (SQL> connected). Please helpYeah, you cannot wrap!
The solution is to encapsulate it into a xxx.sql file and invoke it from the prompt:
ECHO spool %LOG%OraCall.log > %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO set linesize 132 >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO COL x_tns NEW_VALUE v_tns NOPRINT >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO COL x_dbid NEW_VALUE v_dbid NOPRINT >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO COL x_dbname NEW_VALUE v_dbname NOPRINT >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO SELECT '%DBTNS%' x_tns FROM dual; >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO SELECT dbid x_dbid FROM v$database; >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO SELECT name x_dbname FROM v$database; >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO @SQLSelect.sql >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO spool off >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
ECHO exit >> %LOG%OraCall.sql
sqlplusw -s "%DBUser%/%DBPass%@%DBTNS%" @%LOG%OraCall.sql > %LOG%OraCall.lst
