Hi,
From SQL:
SQL>SPOOL abc.txt
SQL>SELECT ACCN_PERIOD_COD_VC,SUM (op_amt_faa_nb)
FROM table1
WHERE ACCN_PERIOD_COD_VC like '%-06'
GROUP BY ACCN_PERIOD_COD_VC;
SQL>SPOOL OFF;
From PL/SQL: You will have to write cursor.
Open the Cursor.
LOOP
Fetch the record
Write into file using UTL_FILE
END LOOP
Close Cursor
