Spooling queries output to text file

Question

Hi All,
I need help to spool the output to a text file for a sequence of queries that I need to execute.
Lets say, the queries would in a sql file as follows:
Select * from emp where empId = 1
Select * from emp where empId = 2
Select * from emp where empId = 3
The output in txt file should have the details as
Employee Id Employee Name Employee Designation
1 Alex Manager
2 Conrad Sr Manager
3 Herman Technical architect.
I am trying to execute this from sql developer.
Any pointers in this regard would be highly helpful.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
Why not use just one query
SELECT       *
FROM       enp
WHERE       empid     IN (1, 2, 3)
ORDER BY  empid
You can use "SPOOL filename APPEND" to re-open and add to an existing spool file after it has been closed, but there's no need to in this case.
