Alan,
What do you mean the file is to large for vi? If you are going to string the lines
together be sure that you don't overrun the linitations of the server input line
length. If you need to have continuations in the line I think that the \ tells the
server the command is continued on the next line.
Check the server manufacturer's site for support discussions.

If I have the following two-line sql statement in a file:
SELECT A,B,C FROM TABLE1
WHERE A=1;
and want to create a single line, I could use the following sed script:
/[^;]$/{
N
s/\n/ /
}
which would produce:
SELECT A,B,C FROM TABLE1 WHERE A=1;
What would my sed script look like if there were 2, 3, or even 4
continuation lines (unknown number of lines)?
Note that the file is too large for vi.
Any good UNIX sites where I could post UNIX questions?
Thanx,
