Hi
You need to set serveroutput on.You will only get output once you would set it.You mentioned,you are getting one output.You didnt print it here.Where it is?
Three general thngs.
1)Please don't use caps while posting.I hope you know it,in internet chats,forums,it is considered as shouting.
2)Please read Pl/Sql guide from docs.These things are covered in details there.You can read it here.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/toc.htm
3)Always mention your database and o/s version while posting.
Aman....
