It can be done like this:
column ext noprint new_value ext
select to_char(sysdate,'HH24MI') ext
from dual;
spool File.&ext
select ...
spool off
The output will be in a file 'File.xxxx' where xxxx is the formatted time.

Subject: Reg. SPOOL in SQL*PLUS
Hi DBAs,
I would like to know the way for specifying a filename dynamically in
SQL PLUS.
Say, for example
The file name should be suffixed with a sequence number available from a
SEQUENCE object. ( like SPOOL <filename>||seq1.nextval).....
Any idea?
Thank You,
Arul.
