Bill,
You're on the right track, both should work, if you want to see the text on screen, change
the SQL*Plus environment, i.e. Options->Environment and under Screen Buffer increase the
Buffer_Width, to some large number (larger than the text you're trying to see). If you don't care
about seeing the text on screen, set linesize to an appropriately large number then spool a file.
When you view the spool file, it should look fine.

HTH,
Rich

how can I display more text on a line? I've adjusted linesize, but the last several columns are chopped off . . . there's a screen buffer setting in the SQLPlus environment, but it doesn't seem to do anything that I can see.

thanks
