RE: Procedure Builder vs SQL question.

Ron,

if you enter the line set define ~ command before you @g:\..... you should be fine.

this is a difference between sqlplus and pb. note that toad works like pb - anything within
the /* */ is a comment.

wouldn't it be great if Oracle could produce two products that work consistently the same way? :)

hope this helps....

List,
One of the developers here is using Procedure Builder to create and compile his PL/SQL packages. It works file until he sends me the package in text format to compile on the database. I call the package by @g:\packages\test1 where test1 is the test1.sql of the package text.   Question. In the text /* yadi yadi */ is comments but if I put /* yadi &yadi */ the compile askes for the input value yadi: I thought that everything in the comment line is just that comments. If the Procedure Builder is used to compile rather than the database sql it works okay.  Any ideas.
Thanks,
Ron
