I am trying to test a hot backup script I downloaded from one of the Oracle sites. Everything works great but there is one statement that backs up the control file to a specific file. I can't get the command interpreter to handle it properly. The script is generating a SQL script which is then executed from within SQL*PLUS. The command contains a file name that must be enclosed in quotes. I can't seem to get the system to pass the quotes properly.

Can anyone help?

Sample code:
set BKP_CONTROL="'d:\backup\PRACTICE\HOT\control\controlfile.ctl'" echo dbms_output.put_line(' alter database backup controlfile to '^|^|%BKP_CONTROL%^|^|' REUSE '); >>%HFILE% Thanks!
