Thanks Mike. Here is an abbreviated version of my script.

SET ECHO OFF
SET VERIFY OFF
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
DECLARE
-- local variables and cursors
BEGIN
-- PL/SQL code

      DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT('------------------------------------------');
      DBMS_OUTPUT.NEW_LINE;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('QH Source Lot ID = '||LotRec.AppID);
      DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('QH State = '||LotRec.State);
END;
