Based on his subject, I think Mr. Cale was wanting to monitor other users' queries. For instance, looking for queries without where clauses that pull credit card numbers to find out if someone is doing something they shouldn't.

There is no effective way to monitor queries from inside the DB. There are no "on select" triggers, system auditing only tracks that a query was issued against the table without any info on the rows returned or query text, and no log is generated on queries, so logminer is no help.

I think you mean to reuse the sql statement sometime again. if this is the case then u can save the query in the sql*plus editor in some file location

     or u can just use SAVE <A> after your query in the sql*plus . 
     The next time u want to use the query u can just use ' @ A ' .

e.g select * from tab;

TNAME                          TABTYPE CLUSTERID
------------------------------ ------- ---------
AB                             TABLE
CD                             TABLE
DISTINCT_TEST                  TABLE
EMP                            TABLE
LXAPPLICATION                  TABLE
LXAUCTION                      TABLE
LXAUCTIONHISTORY               TABLE
LXAUCTIONSTATUS                TABLE
LXBID                          TABLE

SQL> save a replace
Wrote file a

SQL> @ a

TNAME                          TABTYPE CLUSTERID
------------------------------ ------- ---------
AB                             TABLE
CD                             TABLE
DISTINCT_TEST                  TABLE
EMP                            TABLE
LXAPPLICATION                  TABLE
LXAUCTION                      TABLE
LXAUCTIONHISTORY               TABLE
LXAUCTIONSTATUS                TABLE
LXBID                          TABLE

you can also use the sql*plus editor by just typing 'ed' as it will load the last executed sql query in
the editor where you save your query.
