That can be achieved by setting colsep in sql*plus as well and than select * from table (less typing) :-)

Does not help when a text field also contains comma's

Imran,
Select COL1 ||','|| COL2||','||COL3 from table... will create a comma delimited file that you can SPOOL to an OS file. Or you could use a third patry product. Ron
