Jeffrey In the first case you are executing SQL*Plus directly on your PC. In the OpenVMS case, I assume that you are using some terminal emulation program to reach OpenVMS and starting SQL*Plus on that system. You may want to verify whether your terminal emulation program is sending the control-C. I regularly use a terminal emulation program that doesn't send the control-C along, and this is irritating. To kill something I just start another window and kill the other session from there. There may be a setting somewhere you can change if this is the situation. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

However, from OpenVMS, I am kept in sql*plus. We have some scripts that do a pause in them so can terminate if a problem. However, if hit ctrl-c during the pause sql*plus ends commiting the updates. Shouldn't sql*plus just return to a prompt or is this normal on windows.
