Re: Editing pfile created from spfile

The problem is that oracle use '0A' as line terminator instead of '0D0A'. This is a common problem with oracle text files, like logs, on windows. Notepad does not handle this.
You can use wordpad for this.

Personally, I am using Textpad and have no problem seeing the file OK.
