Re: spool file size limit..... correction

According to the Oracle 9i Reference Manual, Spooling will create a file on the OS location designated in the SQLPLUS spool command of default location. The spooling will write to the file everything that appears on the screen. Spooling stops when you issue the SPOOL OFF command. That leads me to believe that the spool limits are the OS file size and/or free disk space.
I will read the manuals before I venture an answer.... Ron

By the way,
input file tart you run with '@' statement does have a limit. We had an application that
just dumped all the SQL statements it executed. I once tried to just execute the file
and it just stopped without any warning at something like 64 Kb. To work around it I
just piped the file to sqlplus.
