In the login.sql text file of your working directory, place a line like this:

define _editor=c:\winnt\notepad.exe

Hi,

I wonder if anyone can tell me how to change the text editor which is invoked using the edit command in sqlplus( Plus80w ) in the Windows enviroment. I enjoy the Unix tool vi, and have a windows/Dos based vi editor I would like to use instead of Notepad.
For those intreseted in the tool visit www.vim.org .

Thanks
Denham
