Roy,
You got me thinking on a tangent. How can I cut and paste the whole
multi-line SQL
statement at once and have it useable. Now you can, of course, use sqlplus
in silent
mode (-s), but that's a little too silent for my tastes. So how 'bout set
sqlnumber off
& sqlprompt ' '. That way you get:
select blah, deblah from blahde
where blah != deblah and ...
Nicely cutable & pasteable, just thought I'd share.

Apologies--I wasn't clear in my original post. Right now I'm getting:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> select username
2 from dba_users
3 where username like '%MC%' ;
What I'd *really* like to have is:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> select username
2 from dba_users
3 where username like '%MC%' ;
That way I could copy/paste sql commands as easily as I could when my prompt
was just "SQL> ".
Setting sqlnumber off gets me:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> select username
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> from dba_users
[EMAIL PROTECTED]> where username like '%MC%' ;
Which isn't horrible, although I do miss the numbers. But no matter--I'll
just live with it...
Many thanks!
