I'm not answering the question but suggesting sorting your data on that date column and opening, writing to, and closing a file for every unique value for this date column.

Greetings,

Had an situation today in 7.3.4.3 running on AIX v4.2. I was extracting data to several different files based on the date record using UTL_FILE. I found I couldn't have more than 10 files open at any given time. I know the default in 8i is 50 files, but I looked on OTN and couldn't find either the default number of files (has to be 10) or any way to change it for 7.3x.

Does anyone know if it can be increased and how?

Thanks,
