RE: A Basic PL/SQL Question
Another option is to create a table with a large varchar2 column and insert the data row by row. You can then spool a SELECT from that table to a file. e.g. create table hold_output (mytext varchar2(4000) tablespace ts_small; -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2001 4:09 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi, This is my first attempt at writing a PL/SQL procedure.

RE: A Basic PL/SQL Question
Hi ... you can go for UTL FILE feature of Oracle PL/SQL, it is very handy while handling large amount of data that DBMS_OUTPUT can't handle due to the buffer size constraints. Cheers, Bagchi.

Use the UTL_FILE package and write the results to a temporary file.

RE: A Basic PL/SQL Question
Bill, The version 8 PL/SQL manual states: Messages sent using the DBMS_OUTPUT are not actually sent until the sending subprogram or trigger completes. There is no mechanism to flush output during the execution of a procedure. You may want to try using the file i/o facility provided by the UTL_FILE package - not as convenient, but should handle all of your table. Maybe use DBMS_OUTPUT to indicate when file has been written?

RE: A Basic PL/SQL Question
Bill, Try pushing the output directly to a file using calls to the Utl_File supplied package. That would allow you unlimited spooling capacity. If you really want to use DBMS_Output, you might try (but I don't know if it would work) to call DBMS_Output.Disable then DBMS_Output.Enable(100) every once in a while in a loop in your procedure. That would close the buffer, then open it with a new million character capacity (I think). Jack Jack C. Applewhite Database Administrator/Developer OCP Oracle8 DBA iNetProfit, Inc.
