RE: Simple PL/SQL output question

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);

The above runs fine in Toad. Toad is smart enough to see that you are using DBMS_OUTPUT and if not enabled, will turn it on.

In sqlplus, the above works fine for me using 11.1.0.6 client on Windows 2000 connected to a 10.2.0.4 database on Linux. I get the row of dashes. If I "r" the command, I get a listing of it followed by another line of dashes - so it's working fine. Same again if I just "/" it - except there's no display of the SQL itself, just the output.

:-(

Cheers,
Norm.
