Re: sqlplus question ???

Yes, there is. You'll get at least 5 replies for this, 'cause it's an easy one, but maybe I'll be first.

Sum computes on breakpoints, so you have to set the sum (which you did) and also set the breakpoint (which you did not).

Add

    break on report

to the sql file.

Good luck,
