The command is "set sqlprompt". Dick Goulet Senior Oracle DBA Oracle Certified 8i DBA
-----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 12:45 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Greetings all, I've set up my login.sql so that my prompt shows my username & the sid of the db to which I'm connected. This works well, but has made it tough to drag-select text b/c now the first line sticks way out relative to the continuation lines, like so: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> select username 2 from dba_users 3 where username like '%MC%' ; Is it possible to specify the prompt that shows on continuation lines (or otherwise pad it out) in sql*plus?
