The Compute works hand in hand with the break function. Before the compute line you need to add

break on report

So, it should be

set pagesize 999
Set linesize 100
Col file_name format a50
Col bytes format 999,999,999,999
break on report
compute sum of bytes on report
select file_name, bytes from dba_data_files order by file_name;

I ran it and it works

Hi all,

I have these in sqlplus:
set pagesize 999
Set linesize 100
Col file_name format a50
Col bytes format 999,999,999,999
compute sum of bytes on report
select file_name, bytes from dba_data_files order by file_name;

The query returns all the data files back, but it did NOT show the sum of the bytes. Is there anything I forgot to set? Thank you.
