<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2>  In your startup directory on SQL Plus, you can automatically run   a script that will setup the environment like you want it.  Its called   LOGIN.SQL.
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
  Here
  is a copy of mine:
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
  set
  termout onset pagesize 0set echo offset feedback offset   sqlprompt ''spool c:\temp.sqlselect 'set sqlprompt '''||name||' >   '';' from v$database;spool off_at_c:\temp.sqlset pagesize 35set   feedback onset termout off
  What
  this does is to take the name of the database from v$database and create a   temporary SQL file, then runs it.  This will set my prompt to   

<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2>INSTANCE_NAME >
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2>where INSTANCE_NAME is the name of the database.
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
  For
  example, if I log onto DEV then the SQLPROMPT will be
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
  DEV
  >
<FONT color=#0000ff face=Arial

  size=2> 
  Hope
  you can use it.

  p.s.
  ...  Remember that  this only works for the initialization of SQL   Plus.  If you do a connect inside of your session then the prompt will   not change.
