Mark - A control-L is an ASCII form feed, if that helps. You could use the Unix command "tr" to remove them.

I'm creating a spool file of SQL commands based on several "select...from" statements. When I "vi" my output file, I see a "^L" character as the first character after each of my select statements. I remember a solution being presented a few years ago that allowed you to eliminate the "^L" on this list but I've managed to loose it. I seem to remember that you must use silent mode (-s) and the proper setting of several of the SQLPlus environment variables. Any help would be appreciated
