Hi! Tipham!
Here is the command:
In Sql/plus
1. spool on --these command set spool on
2. spool c:\desc_table.sql -- these command open desc_table.sql
file for spooling. It is
user-defined it will be created if
it is not existin
3. desc table_name -- the result will be recorded to
desc_table file. Open it in any text
editor and print it.

  • Calling stored proc (with 2 IN and 3 OUT) - from SQL Plus

    This is the signature of my stored proc:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE myschema.myproc
       p_usr_name     IN  VARCHAR2,    
       p_send_tmstmp  IN  DATE,    
       p_ret_value    OUT NUMBER,
       p_err_code     OUT VARCHAR2
    )If I need to call it from sql plus, how do I need to pass the arg?
    This is what I am doing
    execute myschema.myproc('abc123','02-MAY-2008');
    What is wrong here? If someone could help. Thx!

    Try something like this
    var usr_name    varchar2(30)  
    var send_tmstmp varchar2(11)  
    var ret_value   number
    var err_code    varchar2(10)

    Let me know whether it is possible to print a hard report rom sql*plus Yes. SPOOL is a command to get SQL*Plus screen results to disk real-time.
    and how.A "report" is such a generic term, that you will have to get started with at least some reading :)

  • How to print out a date from the past

    I am trying to print out a date from the past but I cant seem to get It,
    Lets use for example Independece Day,
    How would you write the code in order to print out that exact date?

    Look at the
    [url=http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/index.html?
    java/util/Date.html]Date APIActually the Calendar class would be better to use, since you can set all the different fields from year to second, plus things like day of week, day of month, week of year, etc.

  • How to exit from SQL*Plus based on the return value of a SQL select stment?

    Hi
    I have a SQL script executed from SQL*Plus. I would like to know if SQL*Plus
    supports any kind of branching or exiting from script execution based on a
    returned value of a SQL select statement. I am on 9i.
    Regards,
    Tamas Szecsy

    in sqlplus, you have whenever
    ex:
    whenever sqlerror exit failure
    insert into ...
    -- if this fails, then you will be out
    insert into ...
    -- if this fails, then you will be out
    whenever sqlerror continue
    insert into ...
    -- if this fails, this continues
    insert into ...and you have PL/SQL
    declare x number;
    begin
    select count(*) into x from emp;
    if (x=14) then null; end if;
    end;
    /note that you can mix those in some case
    -- exit if there is no row in emp
    whenever sqlerror exit 1
    var dummy number
    exec select count(*) into :dummy from emp having count(*)!=0

  • How to insert data which contains '&' from SQL*Plus without asking prompt

    Hi,
    I want to insert data in table from SQL*Plus but data value contains '&' as given in below example(insert script).
    There are 10000 rows. When I load from SQL*Plus it is asking for 'value for :P'.

    Example
    Insert into CS_Tracker (TrackId,FeedBack) values ('ARARGE034678','S&P');
    Insert into CS_Tracker (TrackId,FeedBack) values ('ARARGE034676','S&F');
    Insert into CS_Tracker (TrackId,FeedBack) values ('ARARGE034677','A&P');

  • How can I print out my contacts from my ipad

    HHow can I print out my contacts from my iPad or iPhone?

    Hi Ken, there is an app, Contact Sheet (http://itunes.com/apps/appiota/contactsheet) that will not only print your contacts, it can also print the pictures!  This app can be used to back up, share, or extract information from your contacts.  You can select which contacts to use by creating a group and you can choose which fields to include.  So, for example, if you were creating a phone list to distribute to your bowling group, you could just include names and phone numbers and not include address or other information that people may not want shared.  It can even be used to send group emails and group text messages.  Please check it out!

  • Why can't I get my printer to print out a playlist from i-tunes? It used to work but now my printer doesn't seem to receive the "print" command.

    Why can't I get my printer to print out a playlist from i-tunes? It used to work, but now the printer doesn't seem to recognize the "print" command coming from i-tunes. The printer works for other applications!

    I  finally solved this problem after toiling with it for a couple of  days.  Solution:  Once you have  burned your CD you must go back into  iTunes to your music/playlists and select the playlist you just burned  and click file; print and you will  get the mosaics that we have been  accustomed to.  I was on hold with  Apple Support when I found this  myself.  Yes......!!! Problem solved..for me anyway.  Good luck!

  • How to exit from SQL PlUS

    HI,I came to know that direct exit from SQL Plus without Oracle shutdown causes future issues of ORA-0600 kind of errors. Is it true? If yes could u pls suggest me how to shutdown from user "SYSTEM/manager". Bcoz with this am warned that I dont have previleges.

    Hello,
    HI,I came to know that direct exit from SQL Plus without Oracle shutdown causes future issues of ORA-0600 kind of errors. Is it true?The ORA-00600 is an internal error it can be caused for instance by a Bug, a corruption, ... , and if someday you experience this kind of error, you should open a Service Request to My Oracle Support.
    However, I've never heard that exiting sqlplus could cause this kind of error. Where did you get such information ?
    how to shutdown from user "SYSTEM/manager". To shutdown the database you should be connected with the User SYS (as SYSDBA). You may use the following statement:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    shutdown immediate;
    exitHope this help.
    Best regards,

  • How to connect from sql*plus to Sql Server

    Dear Profs.
    How I can connect from sql*plus v8 on my local pc(Win XP) to Sql Server Express 2005 light weight installed in same local pc ?
    Thanks,
    Ahmed.

    You'll need to setup heterogeneous services. This is done by creating an init file for the SQL Server db with %ORACLE_HOME%\hs\admin that refers to a DSN for the Sql Server Database. The listener would also need an entry for the SQL Server DB DSN. After that you would create a dblink to SQL Server in your Oracle instance and then could query across the dblink.

  • Restricting the user to operate DML's from SQL PLUS Environment

    how to Restrict the user to operate DML statements from SQL PLUS Environment.

    Once you restrict SCOTT user to not be able to do an INSERT command, the SQL*Plus returns an error for user SCOTT when he tries to execute an INSERT statement.
    Note however, that this is enforced by SQL*Plus, not the database!
    Look into the use of product_user_profile from Oracle documentation for more information.
