You can't have the SQL statements on the command line. You must put them in a script file (eg myscript.sql) and execute it with the @ sign. Thus, sqlplus -s scott/tiger @myscript[note the SPACE between the tiger and the @]. Hemant Viraj Luthra [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/12/2001 01:10 PM

I don't believe SQLPlus will let you run a SQL statement in the command line itself. As you can see in Usage:, it doesn't have an option for this. However, if you insist on running SQL statements in the command line itself, you can probably do something like (only in Unix): sqlplus -s

The way you're doing it sqlplus is trying to parse the SQL as a command line argument, which will not work. Try these: 1. echo select * from dual; | sqlplus scott/tiger 2. sqlplus scott/tiger EOF select * from dual; EOF Jared On Monday 03 December 2001 21:10, Viraj Luthra wrote: Hello
