Allan, try the following: comment out the accept statements. Replace the &&variable with &1 and &2 then replace the spool command with &2..sql. Now generate a sql command file using something like

select 'start scriptname '||lower(owner)||' '||lower(table_name) from user_tables;

This should help you out, and thank you for using the cooperative FAQ.
