they got rid of the Windows SQL Plus utility.

For one thing, the print is tiny. But also, commands like "set feedback off" give an error message.

NOTE: I found the problem, but not the solution. The problem is that when I open the SQL command line utility in Oracle, if I type "host," it shows me to be in the BIN folder. In the past, I have created separate folders for each schema, and then changed the directory to that folder before I log in, so that I can just draw the scripts for that schema directly. Never had an issue with that on Windows 7. But on this machine it chokes up when I do that. I have tried it several times now, and as long as log on with the BIN folder as the default, it works fine. Really annoying, but I am probably going to have to learn to live with it.
